These things look nice, does anybody have any first hand experience or opinions toward any one of the following?

I have fired the "tactical turkey" version. Odd name. I'm a lefty and the shell holder won't work for me. I had to shoot it from the right side. Not a problem if you're right handed, and if the gun was mine I could remove or switch it. I don't guess you'll likely need to shoot it weak handed hunting, but the possibility exists on a tactical gun. Food for thought. The finish was flawless, the sights were nice. It kicks a lot with full-power magnum loads (we were shooting Federal Flite Control) I didn't notice the pistol grip helped the recoil any compared to a straight stocked gun. The Federal stuff shoots good patterns in everything we try it in. We also shot some cheap buckshot and lead 7 1/2 low brass shells. No issues and decent patterns at the 60 feet we shot it.

930combo will probably be my next shotgun purchase,,,

I recently purchased the 835, but not the version shown. Personally, I like the Mossbergs over the 870.

How about now?? Anyone have hands on with one of these?? especially that 930 combo!

I still have my mossberg 590 that I bought in 1985.

I am seriously thinking about the spx.

The 930 with a spec ops stock would be sweet, may have to upgrade my 590....

I like the shorter 18.5 barrel over the 20'
