Cureently, the only firearms in my home are ALL H&R single shots. OOOPS, I do have an antique 16ga Riverside single shot in the closet.
I guess, for me, 'Which Brand?' is a gray area. Just like it is with cars. Do ya buy OWNED in America...or...MADE in America. What if the sales of the "china pump" was one of the things helping keep the doors open at H&R? Just a question, guys, please don't get out the spitt and charcoal.
And then, there is the $200 difference in price to consider, too. It's a little different than going to the local shop and payin' $20 more than Wally World Pardner 12ga. See what I mean about it being a GREY AREA.
I don't need to worry about it right now, anyway, as I am savin' all the extra for a Lam Stock limited addition H&R.
I will give this, Brett, if money were no issue, Mossberg...with out even thinkin' about it.
