With over 6 million already produced it would have to be the rem 870 12 guage pump shotgun. Accessory parts are abundant, Prices on used wingmaster 12 guage magnums can be surprisingly small.

Mine will fire light and heavy loads up to 3 inch.

A cutts comp barrel with all accessory choke tubes cost me anothe 45 bucks used and even with the extra noise the second shot is easily placed for doves ect.

Mossburg Hastings shaw GBG and Remington make rifled slug barrels with cantiliver scope mounts start in price at 110 dollars new to over 500, Boyd brothers and ross and choate make monte carlo and thumbhole stocks for the 870 to get the eye aligned with the scope.

I have 7 barrels for my 2 870's and i can take close 10 foot rabbit shots to 55-60 coyote shots and still board card shoots and deer out to 150 plus yards. I guess i could stop any north american animal with one gun if close enough to it.
