Both Mossberg shotguns I've owned a 500 and an 835. They were the worst dissapointments meaning I thought they would be ok and they sucked so bad I didn't even want them in the house. They were cheap in every sense of the word. The trigger felt like you pulling on a nail driven in to a 4x4 which was convenient because that's what the gun felt like in my hands.
At 30 yards neither one of them would put the center of the pattern even on a yard sign. You had to aim at the top of the sign with the 835 and off the left side with the 500 just to get half the pattern on the paper.
A Raven 25acp because I knew the gun was a throw down but the cartridge is worthless. You may as well carry a pocket full of gravel and throw it.
