What are you using it for?

A 20 gauge, if you’ve never used one.

Stick with a 12. Less expensive and ammo easily accessable

I’ve a 12 gauge that my dad had and I’ve shot it a few times. It’s only a single shot.

Mossberg 88 is a decent one.. if not that one..make sure you get a 12ga that will take 2-3/4 and 3"

Time to upgrade.. The Singles are outdated. Id deff keep it though

20 gauge is better for non-experienced users.

I have a 1923 single shot that is approx 5 ft long. lol Old Joker. Firing pin cost me more to replace than what I gave for the thing from an individual. Has the Brass bead on the end of it. Works great. Learned not to use Magnum rounds in it.. LOL Cracked the stock, lol
