Seriously: You're wasting your money getting the "Cruiser" pistol grip model. Get a shotgun with a full stock and sights already mounted. If you want to add the looks-cool-largely-unnecessary heatshield, you can get a Mossberg one off the Midway or Numrich websites. The stock and sights are necessary, the heat shield isn't.

Trust me... if you need the heat shield during a home defense situation, a shotgun is not what you need... you need a M240B with an ammo can. It makes more sense to get the gun with the proper stock and sights, even if you intend on changing the stock later. I recommend a collapsing M4 stock. Getting quality sights installed on a shotgun is a bitch. Save yourself the money and the hassle.

Example of what you should invest in:

Mossberg 590... never need another shotgun.

Also check out the Winchester 1300. Did you look at the FN TPS link I posted above?
