My son is wanting a new 12 gauge pump shotgun for Christmas for duck/goose hunting. Wants to go synthetic. I shoot an 870 express super magnum but he wants something different than the old man. Have looked at the Benelli Nova and Nitro Mag but have read some negatives on Nitro Mag. Looking to spend $550 max, any suggestions on a solid gun?

Nova. I have the Nova and really like it. Great back-up gun from my semi-auto.

Edited to add link discussing nova vs. supernova.

Browning BPS

I love the location of the saftey and the bottom eject...especially if he is a lefty.

Nova... I loved the one I used to have. Not for people who are a pussies about getting a bruised up shoulder though.

If this, then the BPS, for reasons mentioned above.

Mossberg 835. Shoots everything. He can learn how to break the whole gun down, and put it back together. Around 350.00 and you have enough left over for extras. Your welcome.

BPS. I have put mine through 9 levels of hell over the years and it is still a meat saw.
