Hunting shotgun

[DAIGARO]

Getting into hunting and I was wondering what is a good hunting shotgun. I'm interested in hunting turkeys and various waterfowl. I'm left eye dominant if that matters and I willing to spend around 1,000$

Thanks in advance

Whats your budget?

 

[Winchester-1897]

A 12g semi auto of some sort considering you are left eye dominant. Stoeger 3000 maybe,under $1,000.

I'm a lefty and looking seriously at the Browning BPS pump. It bottom ejects and is generally well liked. When finances allow I'll be considering the Upland Special.

Ithaca 37 or browning bps. The bps has more chamber lengths and is available in 10 12 20 28 I believe and 410.

I would try my best to shoulder the BPS upland special prior to buying one. It is not a gun I would select for waterfowl. I'm a lefty also due to my eye dom but shoot all right handed guns for years with never an issue. The bps hunter maybe a more universal fit.

What are you planning to hunt with your shotgun?

A Rem 870 combo would get you going, or Mossberg combo. One gun, three barrels to do all.

I was just thinking as he is left eye dominate a semi might be the ticket. Being partially blind in my right eye I use a semi an 870 pump with scope but I am thinking maybe a semi would be the ticket for me anyway.

used autoloader is the way i would go. get yourself a beretta 391.solid and reliable, can be had for under $1000.

Get a gun on which you can adjust the cast of the stock to accommodate a left handed (left eye dominant) shooter.

Falling in this category are: Browning Maxus, Winchester SX3, Beretta 391 and 400.

...and synthetic stocked models can be shimmed to adjust cast for leftie and drop if needed.

Some semis are also made in Left Hand versions. The 11-87 comes to mind. Also find out if the safety can be reversed on which model, or look for one with the safety under the thumb.

 

[Shotgunhunter]

Consider a Mossberg 930. I have one for over three years and it never let me down. There are different barrels available. I payed around $600.00 for it.

 

[jbr87]

I'm also a lefty and shoot an xtrema2 honestly the only guns I would ever buy in lefty form would be a bolt action or a bulpup... semi auto shotguns are fine for us.not to mention the cheaper guns are usually sold with non adjustable neutral cast stocks anyways

 

[romiogt]

For that price look at the Browning Silver Hunter. Much nicer than the bps and will hold it value better as well.

Browning maxus is a great semi auto for about $1200
