Well, mom walked out on her deck last night and found a cougar sitting there waiting on her. She wasn't too worried about the wild hogs or other wildlife she's seen, but the giant cat kinda spooked her. she called and asked me to help her find a shotgun.

Given the situation we believe it best to look for either a 12 or 20 gauge shotty, preferably short barrel as it will be for home defense. Pump action is preferred, but a nice short barrel double might work too.

Short stock would be ideal, but we can always change out the bells an whistles.

Why don't you sell her the Winchester that you just bought for $100? (Sorry, I couldn't resist). ;-)

Shhhhh. she doesnt know about that winchester. It's going in my special trove of treasures to trade in later against an AR10 or AR15 :)

Something like that would be great though. You got another 1300 winchester you wanna sell cheap? :)

You can get a new Maverick 88 from most dealers for less then 200 bux.

www.galleryofguns.com is Davidson's Inc. A lot of dealers go through these folks. Just put in your zipcode and it will give you the closest dealers. You can also see which one will give the best deal out the door.

I can get a Maverick 88 12 gauge 18.5 inch barrel for $222.00 out the door locally.

If you are looking at a short stock and good home defense. The Remington 1100 youth is a great all around shotgun.

Talked to mom again and shes aid she didn't want to spend more than $150 for what she's looking for. She'll probably be waiting a while for that though.
