The SLP is a fine gun! I like how you think. But I'm a poor man, and dollars don't come easy.

Cons, you have to eject the magazine to top it off, unlike just slipping another shell into the tube. As I recall, capacity was about the same, so no real advantage there.
You make valid points. I guess the biggest advantage I see is rapidly changing loads, from say 00 buck, to slugs, to #4. They may not help in a tactical situation, but it would be desirable to me when out on my property. I never know what I'm going to encounter. Hogs, snakes, coyotes, etc. Would be a nice gun to keep on the UTV. Just can't find them yet.

Re: Remington 870 DM???

I may buy the predator model that comes in camo if I can find it. I really like the idea of quick reloading.
