Currently your only choice is the Saiga series. Sometimes you can find a USAS-12 on GunBroker, but it's a DD and you'll pay out the nose 
Valtro makes/made a magazine fed shotgun, but I've never been able to find anyone who imports it or even has one.
In pump guns, the Monolith P-12 had a lot of potential and was scheduled for production in 2009, but it's been 'delayed until the political climate stabilizes' aka: we won't tool up until we are certain our mega-dollars aren't going to be made useless with a ban.
I put 70-rounds through a USAS-12 earlier this week, had all the kick of a 5.56

That's not semi-auto.
The Saigas are not classified as a DD by the ATF because they are sold in a "sporting" configuration and are not offered with factory high-capacity magazines (the 10 and 20 rounders are all aftermarket). I remember reading somewhere that the ATF said they wouldn't re-classify something based solely on aftermarket parts (the other detatchabe mag shotguns were never offered from the factory in so-called "sporting" configurations and were therefore deemed by the ATF to have no "sporting purpose").

The Saiga-12 is about your only choice --- mine has shot hundreds of rds. of Buck,Slugs and Birdshot and I've not had a single malfunction.

I don't see the purpose. 
Because its there. Fun. Whatever. There is no purpose for most of the firearm variants out there.
That said - I have seen some Saigas in 3-gun competition where the shotgun stages are won and lost on reloading speed. Drop mag/insert full mag is much faster than stuffing them in the tube one at a time.

Deer hunting and turkey hunting with mine, what is the point of your shotgun? The Saigas have a chrome lined bore and barrel, are more or less indestructible, pretty much require no maintenance and can be completely field stripped in seconds with no tools. What more do you want, wood?

So does that mean there is no "Sporting Purpose" for my Tromix modified Saiga 12 ? With the folding stock, pistol grip, vertical front grip, shortened barrel w/ flash hider (just on the legal limit) and a stack of 10 round magizines it sure looks mean. I'm sure there must be a purpose beyond home defense. My local club runs a shotgun division in it's monthly steel shoot. I think I will try that as a "sporting purpose".
