Hope this won't happen, but if Uncle Sam ever made you pick just one to keep, what would it be? Dads old gun? A new high-tech multi-purpose semi-auto? Your best shooting skeet gun?

I'll start by saying I would probably pick my 12ga 870, and get every available barrel for it to maximize its utility.

But it sure would hurt to give up my Browning A-5 Sweet Sixteen....(Given to me by my Dad)

I'd have to keep my Mossberg 500. Gotta soft spot
for the sound it makes when you rack one in.

So far my Mossberg 835 with Accu-Mag choke has been about 4 or 5 shotguns in one for me. It's been so versatile for everything from deer, turkey, hogs, ducks, dove, quail, squirrels, coons, blue jays, predators, dogs, burglars, you name it, etc... I like pump action because I don't think I could rely on an auto-loader. I've used a pump shotgun since I was 8 years old so it's too instinctive and reliable.

The only reason I can think to get a new one would be for a shorter barrel and maybe one in Mossy Oak Obsession, therefore I'd get the Mossyberg 500 turkey tactical for my next gun.

Remington 870 for me. I agree with Crump the sound a pump makes is undeniable. It will be the last thing someone breaking into my house would hear just before the "kaboom"

I would have to stick with my Mossberg 835. It serves just about all of my shotgun purposes.

They will play hell getting any of my guns...

How about modifying the question to state there was a fire and the insurance company only gave you enough money for one gun?
