Any views on this Semi Auto shotgun? Looking at purchasing a semi auto for the home. I currently have a Remington pump, but want a semi auto as well and looked at the Mossberg and this one looks pretty nice.

The SPX version comes with pistol grips, 8 shot, ext mag, picatinny rail, ghost ring sights. Price is 807.00

It is a nice looking gun. Couldn't tell you anything about whether this particular shotgun functions as well as it looks except to say that I own and have owned several Mossberg shotguns over the years and have always found them to be good shotguns-especially for the money.

George Hill (the Mad Ogre) seems to like it:

FWIW - Mesa, Arizona PD SWAT is debating replacing their 870's with these at some point in the future. They have already authorized officers to use privately owned ones if they so choose.
