Home defense

I have a Rem. 870 HD that is currently being coated for rust protection . I plan to pick up a semi-auto within the next few days also. Right now I am leaning toward a Mossberg 930 SPX. Anyway, just thought I would do this and now don't hafta decide between the two. One at each end of the house will do fine. ( I had the M1 Super 90, sold it to gather funds for my motorcycle. Had the Rem marine Magnum, traded it for body work on my Xterra...would be great if I still had them, but these two will do just fine ) )

I now have 2 mossberg 500 12 gauges one fitted with my rifled slug barrel and a new to me 18 1/2 inch i/c barrel thats outfitted with a tactical light for the night time.My wife even has her mossberg pump 410 by her side of the bed.

I went pump because they are cheaper to buy.
 
I use a Wingmaster, but also have a nice Winchester SX2 and an OU just in case.

A number of handguns supplement the shotguns nicely.
 
Remington 870 Police Magnum, factory SBS with 14" bbl. Federal 00 buck, reduced recoil. 13" LOP stock, Surefire with X300.
 
Semiauto for sure

Mossberg SPX 930 8+1 w 18" barrel and an LPA Ghost Ring works for me. Everytime I take it to the range people are in awe to see me shoot that thing. Some say that the auto's are unreliable. I haven't had a misfeed yet. As far as the pump goes.... If an itruder is in your house and you have a house over 2700 sq feet they may not hear the pump and if they do hear the pump and they are armed it gives them the chance of pulling out. Id rather have them not see or hear me coming. :D
 
Pump, Colt 12 ga...used to be Ithica featherlight, that one's at my brother's now.

Bad pics...took 2 and the batteries croaked.:o
