What is your favorite pump gun?

I prefer my Mossberg 590 for fighting off the local hordes of zombies.

Not a good picture, but it'll have to do for now.

I'm a SxS double man myself, but I own 3 pump guns. A Mossberg 500 Turkey gun, a Ithaca 37 featherlite 20 ga. and the first pump I ever carried, it belonged to my dad .....

It is pretty hard to beat an Ithaca for shear smoothness and quality of workmanship. These were to some degree hand fitted and have no stamped parts. Every part in the action was hand machined and hand assembled and tested. They also proof fired every gun out the door. After the Ithaca I like the 870. After that, anything else with a proven record of functioning and almost no repairs needed.
 
The Ithaca model 37. I've got one in 20ga that was my dads since he was a kid. I'd love to find one in 12ga. Eat yer heart out remington :P
 
Favorite pump shotgun

I own a Remington 870P. But my actual favorite is the Winchester Model 1897 Trench Gun.
 
Browning BPS - in 12 and 20ga. I think they are a lot smoother than any of the 870's even the old wingmaster - but that's kind of like arguing about whether Ford or Chevy is a better truck ..... each persons choice really. ( or Toyota for that matter ...).
 
Another nod for Remington 870. Have owned several of these and have yet to experience my first problem with any of them.
