[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 2653997, member: 4191"] I favor pump shotguns for in-your-face bear defense. Will carry them if I have to return to a kill site to retrieve game meat, or follow-up a wounded bear into some brush. Semi-auto function is completely dependent on the shell being fired to work the action. Pump shotgun function is completely independent of the shells being fired. Pump shotguns function no matter the shotshell fed into their chamber. Another reason I like the 870s is I've fired my 870s more than any of my other long arms. Began upland bird and waterfowl hunting with them at 14yrs old. I don't have to think about operation of an 870. 870 operation/function is burnt into my memory. As you've noted, can't afford any operational fumbling with your firearm with a charging bear... completely intent on killing. [/QUOTE]
