Looking for a shotgun or handgun
I am looking to pick up a gun here for the house, especially to have on hand for my g/f when im not home. I dont need anything really bad ass. And Im looking to stay in the 300.00 or so range. So I know a handgun is post likely out since a good handgun will run at least 500.00.
But if anyone can steer me in the right direction or has anything they want to sell. let me know

Pony up some more dough and get the 590A1. Metal trigger guard (instead of that cheap plastic shit), parkerized barrel. Mine's all loaded up for HD. One shuck and I'm good to go.

The 870 is a great piece. Just make sure both of you PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE. Learn how to load/unload, put it on/off safe, etc.
AND DO NOT LEAVE THE CHAMBER EMPTY SO YOU CAN "SCARE" THE BAD GUY WITH THE "CLICK-CLACK" SOUND!!!!

+2 on the 870. They are usually </=$300. As for the handgun, get a Glock. I can't say enough good things about them. They don't rust, never jam, and are pretty accurate. Of course, take Chris' advice and practice (x3), and maybe get some private lessons... Just my $0.02.

That's just enough time to get yourself killed.
