I have two of them (I'm giving one to my nephew, though).

5+1... 8+1????

My Mossberg 940 JM Pro is 9+1(with std 2.75" shells).

That looks sweet! Just looked it up... a competition gun. 24-inch barrel - not really designed for defense, eh? But, I'm sure it could serve as such.

Yeah, I would not use it for SD. That would be my Shockwave, if anything. I would use it for clay practice and if I ever went hunting.

'Matter of fact, Miculek uses and sells a speed loader" for it.

That's a great HD gun!

Or LE use. I recall the first time I saw Jack Webb use one to apprehend a BG in Dragnet. Because the BG was known to possess a sawed-off shotgun and to sleep with it undercover in bed, they felt it appropriate to match arms. So they checked out a 12G Ithaca and then 5 rounds of 12G magnum load, 00-Buck.

I loved watching Dragnet as a kid!

This was my favorite episode of that year (1967).
