I have my short barreled pump too, Keith. Mine is a Winchester SXP. Not pretty as a Fox or Parker, but to use your bulldog analogy, it barks here and bites out yonder. It was recommended to me by an ex-special forces military contractor/instructor who taught soldiers in close quarter combat in the Middle East for many years.
Truth is my statement wasn't meant to be about Mossbergs at all. I just used that name to make a point that I see nothing at all wrong with making a comment of praise to a young man who just purchased a gun, without him asking me for it. I don't think L. Brown meant that, either, but misspoke.
