3" and twice the capacity: NorthStar Semi-Trash Pump Duckbill borrowed mine, it will move some water. Not as much as the 4" Kubota or 6" Perkins, but still moves some water.

Supernova or BPS
I give a little edge to Supernova for simplicity in bolt design.
If you go Remington, go Wingmaster or stay home.

I know we're talking about guns, but that 3" pump will dang sure move some water compared to a 2". It more than convinced me to sell my 2" and buy a 3".
Yeah, don't listen to me. I'm just an idiot.
Lol. Duckbill that was funny! The dude up top has already taken lots of bone before this deer, both mule and whitetail.

I have the Benelli Nove and love it. Tough as nails and simple, no tool disassembly, should the need ever arise.

I have a Mossberg 835 and a Benelli Nova and like both of them. Some people have had bad experiences with an 835, but I have had 2 and had no issues with either one...

I used to have an 835, but sold it. I never had and problems, per se, but when using 3 1/2" shells, the loading port was just barely big enough to load the big shells, making it really difficult. That reason alone was enough for me to send it down the road.

Get the bps, you'll love it. She's a little heavy, but a great gun.
Once you strip it all the way down once, its not too bad to put it back together. But if you don't drag it through the mud, you won't have to but every few years.
