Get yourself a used Mossberg 500.
They are inexpensive and indestructible.
It will give you plenty of years of SD.
If you ever get the urge to shoot at some clays it will be a great starter gun.

I have 4 500's
2 12ga
1 20ga
1 .410

As a one and only shotgun I would go with a 12ga.
It is the most versatile gauge and will allow you to also shoot ALL of the shotgun games.

Hi Paul,

This is my H&R Pardner Pump I use for HD:

It is an awesome shotty and only $179 when either D**ks or Cabelas has them on sale! I added the adjustable stock which is totally legal since it is a pump action!
