Pump gun barrel length and set up
Recent posts from Kk got me itching for a pump gun again.
Stupidly sold my mossberg.
What is everyone's preferred barrel length for a home defence scatter gun?
What else do you find benefit in in terms of stock, forend, grip etc.

Re: Pump gun barrel length and set up
I'm also looking, but would like to get something that can double up for a bit of sport too. Recommendations as always would be appreciated.

Re: Pump gun barrel length and set up
I can't see something much longer than my 18.5 inch barrel being very usable indoors.

I have both 20 inch and recently acquired 14 inch Mossberg 500s. Not sure how I lived without the shorty for so long.

Re: Pump gun barrel length and set up
Plenty of scatter, 8+1 or probably 10+1 slugs if I focus hard enough….
Oh and its a Benelli, just to rub the snob in nice and deep……

Re: Pump gun barrel length and set up
5 shot mag with matching barrel, or shorter if legal (try clearing your home to get an idea). Watch Shotgun Hack Job from Chris Baker and his other videos on shotguns. Stocks are indeed usually too long; Magpul I think make some with removable sections.

Re: Pump gun barrel length and set up
Winchester 1300 Defender. I added the Surefire grip/flashlight and side saddle. Also changed the brown stcock to black. I have a spare EOTech sight I want to mount but need to mount a rail first. Gun is 25 years old but runs like a dream.
