18.5" barrel with a 3.5 chamber

^ couldn't agree more. I have a "tactical" shotgun (saiga 12) and I love it! Its one of my favorite firearms. But, as awesome as she is, she stays in the safe and my FNS9 is my first (but certainly not last) line of home defense for a few reasons. I shoot it very well, it has night sights, holds 17 rounds, and its easier to maneuver around the house.
 
3.5......ouch

A 3.5 gun w/ a alloy receiver (like the Mossberg) will kick the living daylights out of you, I promise. A steel gun, like the Rem, is not much better.

That said, there is a RS 18.5 bbl available for the Moss. 835, but I hear they are rare.

I agree that the 3 and 3.5 shells are just not necessary, nor desireable for HD.
