Keep your eyes out for a nice old High Standard. Like a Supermatic Citation. One of the best triggers I've ever pulled. Scary accurate too. I chase shotgun hulls out to 50 yards off hand.

 

I also have a Sports King from around 1953 (I still have the receipt and original box for this one, it went for a princely sum of like 58 dollars back when the dollar had some value), it is okay, but the newer 1973 production (if i recall) Supermatic Citation blows it away in terms or ergonomics, accuracy and parts availability.

 

They're super reliable with even bulk pack ammo. We knock down a brick and it just keeps chugging along. Your thumbs get tired of loading mags before anything else.

 

Brownells supports them quite well. I've rebuilt a lot of both of them from the previous owners WECSOG escapades.
