If you are looking for a good auto loader than how about a Remington 1187. I used a customized version of the 1187 when I worked armed security the nuke plant. Smooth action and the kick wasn't to bad.

One thing I failed to mention was that given the choice, I would prefer not to have a pump action shotgun, if possible. I realize the 870 is pump action, but I was using it as an example of a popular, inexpensive and readily available gun. Any suggestions for a non-pump action shotgun?
