Title says it all.
I'm getting into hunting this year, late better than never. My wife wants a shotgun. I can't afford two.
She hates hard recoiling guns since she is new to shooting. My fault because I let her shoot an AR as her first rifle, and failed to monitor the cheek weld and stock placement.
Anyway I've been looking at the Maverick 88, benelli Supernova, savage security model, and 870 express.
Anything I'm missing?
The only gun you mention that has merit is the 870, that is one easy to take care of gun, however if the hold is wrong it will bruise you. I have one I use to shoot trap and they do shoot flat. An 11-87 in 20 would be my choice but this one you got to keep clean or it will fail. You are talking $325 for a new 870 and $650 for a new 11-87. Possibly if you can find one $400 for a clean 1100 used.
