Which is your choice and why?

Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of the SKS, but lots of others just love them. Ammo is cheap, the gun is cheap, and they're old school eastern block so reliability isn't an issue. I'm totally against going bubba on an old military firearm, but that said those who have the ATI and mag upgrades love them.
For my money, it's all about the 12 gauge. Grab yourself a short barrel 870 and a box of shells, and you can have the time of your life. Skeet shooting, duck hunting or just messing around, my 870 is a lot of fun.
Or if you're a baller, go with the KSG.
They're a little finicky, but once you break one in they're one of the most fun guns I've ever shot.
