I own a Panzer Arms M4. It is a turd. Other than the stuff the Turks built for CZ subject to CZ QC, I would steer clear.
I also have a 870, 590A1, and a 1301......all solid choices.

Semi-auto?..Buy American or Italian, save yourself the headache.
Yes - good point. My recommendations are all not semi-auto. If you want a semi-auto for home defense, you have to pay a lot more money for them otherwise the reliability won't be there. For semi-autos for home defense I recommend:
Benelli M1, M2, M3 or M4.
I think the only kind of shotgun that is problematic in MD is one with a revolving cylinder. The exception to that is the Curciut Judge since that has a rifled barrel.
