There is actually a type of shotgun that is cheaper than even the Maverick 88 on average. You can find them pretty easy too. Most bolt action shotguns can be found at around the $125-$150 mark. They come in just about every gauge on the market. And if you are on a budget while still wanting to protect your home, I wouldn’t turn away from them. I own a Mossberg 16 gauge I found at a gun store for $150. She hasn’t jammed or failed me yet.

Excellent video as always... The 7 shot Maverick 88 has been my home defense gun for years, it was 219.00 at Academy Sports and runs perfect.. A few months ago bought the JTS AK12 for 279.00 at PSA which has functioned perfectly so far and has the lightest recoil of any 12 gauge I have experienced so far... About the same time I also bought a Hatfield 28" semi auto at walmart for 214.00 and a Dickinson 20" semi auto for 250.00 both of which ran good with heavier loads but I enlarged the gas ports so now they function with light loads... A few days ago I ordered a 20" Citadel Warthog from Grab a gun for $169.00 which seem to get mostly good reviews and I assume it will need a gas port mod to function with lighter loads but that's okay... The Citadel looks almost exactly like the Dickinson....

Maverick 88 for the win!

Good video. I have the maverick security shotgun. It's the best. Shot over 500 rounds in the the shotgun. No problems, shot bird shots,00 's slugs, steel ammo and 3 in. Magnums. 👍

Tristar raptor is fairly reliable and cycles everything. I got mine in 20gauge just before the pandemic buying for about $300. It was a youth model for the mrs. works great over 2 yrs later.

I like the Winchester SXP Defender! Doesn't cost a lot, plus the speed pump!

James Reeves at TFBTV has done 500-rd torture tests on several Turkish semi-auto shotguns and they all performed miserably. Not just malfunctions; some broke down internally and couldn't be fired without professional repairs. His Maverick 88 pump performed flawlessly. His conclusion is that cheap (under $500 or so) semi-autos are trash, but there are some good pumps under $250.

Thank You brother! Love your show

I would submit for consideration the Dickinson 212 as well. Good reviews for a $300 Semi Auto HD gun. I picked up a trade in at my LGS for $225. Haven’t shot it a bunch yet but it’s quite nice for the money if you’re on a budget.

Thanks for the shotgun comparisons

Maverick 88 or Mossberg 500 in 20 ga is a winning combination. It’s so money. 👍🇺🇸👍

I am a shotgun fan. Have many, Beretta, Benilli, Mossberg etc. I bought the Panzer M4 based on friends from my Club. And I have to tell you, it runs and runs and runs. One of the best deals I have made in my decades of being a firearm enthusiast. Thanks for the reviews, keep up the great work.

I have a Remington 870, Mossberg 590, and a Maverick 88. Maverick 88 is my bedside ❤️

Nice to see some love for the Maverick 88! Got 3 of them.

Maverick 88 for the absolute win!!!!!

The maverick 88 is easily the best shotgun in this video. There’s been a lot of videos the firearms blog being one of the big producers of torture test featuring Turkish shotguns they generally don’t hold up. The Stevens, The maverick, those are great options please avoid the semi automatic Turkish stuff.

PSA sells a Mossberg 500 with a hunting barrel and a security barrel for $450.

I bought my Maverick 88 used at a Turner’s for $100.00 it is a 12 gauge, 20 inch barrel and 7+1. I love mine and I can’t complain.

I just bought an ata arms etro 12. Reminds me of your Turkish style. That automatic one at the end is goals for me lol

JTS is on my list for this year !!

PLEASE do a .410 ga Home Defense Shotgun Review, Testing, etc.! You've done a Ba-Zillion 12ga reviews, but there are literally MILLIONS of us who are older, and/or impaired, who CANNOT handle the recoil of even the mildest recoil operating 12ga, or 20ga, and so .410 ga is the only one left for us in real world terms (ammo availability, especially in Home Defense rounds). I've been trying to find a Hatsan AR-15 Style .410 anywhere here in the US (they DO market their 12 ga guns all over the place and they DO make a .410 ga AR), which chambers the 3" rounds as well as the 2.5" (sadly, the IDIOTS are Bear Creek brought out their .410 AR but it ONLY chambers a 3" if HAND FED.....mags only accept 2.5"....utter IDIOCY) in 17 round mags. So, if you would, PLEASE consider those of who are NOT in our 20's, 30's, or even 40's, and who can't handle 10mm, 12ga, .454 Casul, etc. and need to carry what we can ACCURATE SHOOT, ie, .32 Mag/S&W (or ACP), Full Size .380 (mircos and subs are simply NOT controllable), 5.7x28 Real World Carry Options (Shoulder Holsters, Bib Holsters), as well as Real World CArry Options for those of us who can no longer, for health reasons, wear belts, and so must wear Bibs or Suspenders. Please think OUTSIDE the Box! Cheers from the Oil Patch in Central WY

Glad to see the Stevens 320 on here - everyone always talks about the Mav 88 but I think the Stevens is a better shotgun and is usually a bit lower in price.

And is produced by our worst enemy. 😢

The phrase "budget auto loader" is right up there with hepatitis in the things that should be avoided category. Semi auto shotguns are pay-to-play and the 930 is the budget option for them.

Still loving that ak shotgun I see. I have the maverick 88 and it is fantastic.

I know they are more old fashioned compared to what is shown in the video. But what about bolt action shotguns. You can find a good dependable bolt action for around $150. They come in most gauges and they were mass produced for decades. They were only phased out because of the pump action. I’ve got a Mossberg 190 16ga. and she still works. Good old American Made craftsmanship, and she can still make Swiss cheese outta any target. Sure compared to modern shotguns they have there shortcomings. But for $150 I’ll just adapt to it and make it work.

My Aksa S4 runs flawless. Even low brass birdshot. 200 rounds of mostly birdshot and not one failure.

TRUTH - everyone always talks about the 88 being the best budget choice but I'm all about the 320. I have a Winchester SXP too and the Stevens is even a little smoother than that, both are super reliable and will shoot anything. I looked at both the 88 and 320 and the maverick just feels cheap. I'm sure it is reliable but it just doesn't feel like a nice shotgun at all.
