Mossberg 'Security' 12-Ga. 8-shot, Short barrel.
Syn. stock and forearm
BIG 5 has them in their Sunday flyer for $279.99

Is this a good or great price?

also, Remington '00' buck box of 5 rounds $5.29

That is a good deal, and a great gun. There are many ways to customize them.

not sure about the ammo though

It's Remington, how bad could it be?

I'm taking the ad to my local dealer. What is a Great price?
Have you seen these selling (in the last 6 months) for less? How much?
Where?
I'm trying to do my homework and ask for 'the best price'.

Thats a pretty good price there. Unless its a loss-leader item (I doubt they'd use firearms for that), Holly should be able to match it if not beat their price.

That's not a bad price, as far as ammo that's not a good deal, I would reccomend getting it online.

Ammunition To Go : 50rds - 12 gauge NobelSport LE 2 3/4 12 pellet 00 Buckshot [ANS1200BK10] - $27.95
Or if you want less
Ammunition To Go : 10rds - 12 gauge NobelSport LE 2 3/4 12 pellet 00 Buckshot [ANS1200BK10] - $5.75

I've seen the Big 5 ad several months ago and been down to look at one. The Mossberg "Security 12" they have does not have the same quality finish I have on my Mossberg 500. It reminded me of spraypainting something without cleaning it. The plastic seems sub-par for them too. Functionality I'm sure is fine. I took a pass on it.

Later, I got my Mossberg 500 for $175 with a 26 inch vent-rib barrel and accuchoke. For $90 I got an 18 inch no choke barrel. The one shortcoming is that it's only 6 shots instead of 8. Sure, it was used... but I'm glad I waited.

Thanks for the replys!

I would go for the 6 shot with the extra barrel, never know if you will shoot some clays/birds, the add says either ,,,,,,there is also 10 % off any sporting arms in stock coupon too, time to buy a russian Nagant hehehehe $8 off $89

I got Holly to match the price. Should be here Friday.

Booga · 03-02-2010, 09:34 PM

I'm gonna guess Holly is some local dealer?
If so, kudos from me. I'm always supportive of the local dealer over some national chain. I hope you'll get much entertainment with your purchase, and wish that it never need be pressed into duty.

Yea, she's calls herself the manager at Columbia Gun Rack. Awesome customer service if your around the Tri Cities.
