The classic pump action ...it comes in many forms and makes...
I have three at the moment all Remington 870 Wingmasters.
A 20 gauge from 1962 with a 28 inch barrel and Modified choke...
A 12 gauge from 1975 with a 28 inch barrel and Modified choke...
And lastly a 12 gauge from 1981 with a 18 inch barrel and Improved Cylinder choke...

With that said there are many excellent choices out there ...Just thought it would be fun to see and discuss some of them...

I have always liked the looks of those...thanks for sharing.
I owned a Ward's Western Field at one time...the barrel had been "bobbed" to 20 inches..and it was a slick handling shotgun...lots of fun , for sure...

Only pump shotgun I have is my old Benelli Nova 12ga. It's really not worth showing.

My other pump "firearm" is a Mossberg 590A1 Shockwave, which is just a short, painful reminder that the 3" mags are meant for the Beretta 1301 or A400! :)
 
I have a "New" Browning BPS 28" w/Diana IM choke(gold)
Love the BPS bottom eject.
Not that spendy looking to get a Beretta 1301; patience not something I have much of....
Bbls are not that easy to find in 21"...
 
Pump shotguns - my firearm weekness;).

I have the hardest time not buying one for a great deal even though I have plenty plus a couple:D

870 Express police trade in (1981?) - my HD shotty "Good Intention's" cuz the road to hell etc;) 7+1 20" w/rifle sights and all metal

My all time favorite, a JC Higgins 12 ga circa 1952 - one of 2 years High Standard made them. Jeweled bolt, adjustable choke and runs like it's polished and oiled. I use her for clays and named her "Butta" - she is a beauty and probably in 98%+ condition.

I have a couple more but those three are used the most.

I like that 870 a lot! Very cool.
Here's mine. Maverick 88.
Sorry for the crappy pic. Yes, I carry it muzzle down.
Buck and slug alternating. It only has one purpose.

It took a while to find a replacement for my wood-stocked 80s vintage Mossberg 500, they almost all come w synthetic stocks now.
Found this one on Gunbroker a couple of yrs agoView attachment 596325
Good looking shotgun for sure...!

Mossberg now sells a "retro" line of the 500 / 590 series of shotguns...which I like , except for the price.
I understand that wood stocks can cost more and may even take more work to make and install...but really...?
