I took a newbie out this month to shoot a 12 gauge riot gun for the first time. We shot the High Standard. To me, it has the post positve feel of any riot gun I've had the pleasure to shoot, including the Winchester Models 97 and 12, the Remington 870, the Mossberg 500 and 590, and the Ithaca 37.

BTW, I am glad that each has been used and has the wear marks to show for it.
I have no hesitation in taking them all out to the range and shooting 10 or more shells from each at one outing.

I've been looking for a Model 97 Riot gun for soooooooooo long, but no thanks to the cowboy shooting craze, they have just about dried up.

If I might nominate your first guest? Say hello to Peter, a buddy of my son, who until this fine summer day, had never fired more then a BB gun. It's not that his folks are anti gun, they live overseas, and he simply does not have access to them. Well last summer his dad asked if we would take him to range... as I understand it he did have fun... and quickly advanced past the Winchester 94-22 we set him up with. (editors note: chamber is open and both photographer and subject had checked the shotgun)
Not only are riot guns useful, they go over really well with teenage boys. By the way sorry about the Benelli, my Model 97 was in the other safe....

Rather partial to the 37 myself, but that Hi-Standard brings back memories! Dale

The High Standard is the one that fits me best.
Very positive feel.
Super smooth action.
Easiest to load.

In my career I have been issued/used every aforementioned riot gun plus Remington M-10, Mossberg, and the SPAZ(?). If I had to choose one It would be the Remington M-870.

Do we agree that if he removes that tag we report him big time?
And I hope that none you law abiding forum members even think about cutting the tags off your mattresses.

For Bushmaster1313...do yourself a favor and replace that grip cap screw with a nice oval head, brass slotted screw. That'll be the icing on that beautiful shotgun.
