I know this is just asking for trouble, but here I am, kind of at a cross road.
Here are my current prospects...keep in mind that I have no intention of hunting, this is strictly home defense.
A used Remington 870 7+1 with a sling for 335 out the door.
-or-
A new Mossy 500 5+1 with a heat shield...244 out the door.
Both are 18 1/2 bbl, black synth stock at first the answer is pretty clear to me to go for the Mossy, however, something about the Rem just feels....nice. It's almost 100 bones more and used, but I really like the 7+1 although, I'll probably never need that many shots for HD, lest the SHTF, but man, I like the option and the look(far less important I know).
Main problem is I have to make the decision by tomorree, so any advice is appreciated, thanks folks
