So, I've narrowed down my first shotgun choice to a Remington 870. There are so many variations that I don't even know where to begin. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, but when looking at a gun I tend to look at guns that are attractive to me.
With that said, I'm having a really tough time deciding whether I want to get a 870 Tactical or just a standard length 870. Primarily the gun would be used to shoot clays at the range (friends throwing them out). The secondary purpose, if ever needed, would be self defense. I love the way the tactical models look, but since I will be primarily using it for shooting clays, I'm not sure if it's the right choice.
I'm looking for more educated responses as I am ignorant when it comes to shotguns.
