I am looking for my first shotgun.
This one looks shorter than the one at
http://www.cabelas.ca/product/3819/maverick-88-3-12-gauge-pump-shotgun
Their price is $279.

Is the barrel length only difference between them?
Thanks

It`s because this one is the security model. For home defense.

Thanks for the reply.
Does longer barrel give longer shooting distance and better accuracy?

 

[Lewvan]

It can but you also have to look at the choke as a more restrictive choke gives a tighter pattern which can help with distance

In general, yes. Longer barrel means more velocity.
