Shotgun

Which is the right pump shotgun for you? Nothing is more American than a Pump-Action Shotgun. Known for their dependability and economic price, pump-actions have become popular in everything from trap shooting to home defense and make a great first shotgun....

Always wanted a Benelli but thought you could never afford one? Too many Benelli’s to choose from? Got a thing for Italians? While the selection of Benelli models and configurations does seem endless, the options for the Italian shotgun that gets a...

Another tough contender in our pump action comparison is the Browning BPS. The BPS is essentially a direct knockoff of the Remington 870 Wingmaster; however, Browning made a few stylistic and feature changes like: a thumb-operated grip safety on top of...

Chiappa Firearms has produced their Triple Crown shotgun. As the name implies, there are three barrels of 12-gauge, 3-inch magnum awesomeness! The third barrel rests on top of and is incorporated into a traditional double barrel platform to form a pyramid...

One of our honorable mentions is the Harrington & Richardson (H&R) pump action shotgun. This is a very basic, entry-level machine for tossing shells and a great starter for youth shooters or those who are grossly uninformed about shotgunning. We've u...

You are probably wondering how we could put the 870 Wingmaster in the top slot and kick the 870 Express down to fourth place. And believe us, we get it, but there are some major differences to contend with here. This Remington 870 shotgun shoots great....

Rarely does a firearm hold it’s own against the ongoing competition year after year. Something even more rare is a shotgun holding it's own generation after generation, in it’s original form, unaltered despite ever-changing trends and “coolness facto...

The Weatherby PA-08 presents beautifully and has a great feel to the gun. The walnut forend and stock is pretty top notch, lending a much higher-end display that one would see on a shotgun at twice the price range. We didn't have very high hopes for...

“Yeaahhh, everybody’s shootin’, chuka-chuka, pow-pow!” Gotta love that Winchester commercial with the catchy little ditty of a theme song. Certainly it's as memorable as the Winchester name, but only time will tell if the Winchester SXP pump-action is as w...
