870 or Mossberg?

[OlympicArmsFan]

Im just going to keep it simple on what ever gun I go with. I may do an upgrade on the stock to make it feel more like my AR but then again I like simple.

I dont have and wont trick out my AR. I wont even do that to my AK.

I think if I change the stock to a pistol grip stock on a mossberg it makes it a bit harder for the safty but its something I can adjust to.

Im still looking and in no rush to jump on anything unless I get a better deal then what Im seeing as of late.

Buds is making it hard not to buy right now lol they have some great prices.

How does Buds gun shop do that? They are atleast 90 bucks or more cheaper then any shop in town on the same guns.

Mossberg 500

My vote goes to Mossberg 500.it never jams like Remington 870.

Ford vs. Mercedes

Either would work for me. I have an 870 but wouldn't hestiate to recommend a Mossberg.

Regarding:

"saying a Mossberg is better in any way just isn't true, it'd be like saying a Ford is as good as a Mercedes, the only way it would be better is if it was stolen because you wouldn't lose as much"

BTW From behind the wheel of my Chevrolet (Corvette) I don't see much in the Mercedes lineup that looks all that interesting. OK, so the CLS is attractive, if slow and the SLR is not too shabby. At least their diesels aren't as pathetic and smelly anymore. Similarly with regard to the Ford vs. Mercedes I would certainly take one of these:

over this pile:

But that's just me. (And anyone with a pulse)

I like the mossbergs better because i like the ergonomics slightly better.

870

Because it is the one I own of course. It seems to have less play/flex in the forearm than the Mossberg.
