It seems the Mossbergs are "looser" by design, sort of like an AK47, so people often complain they are kind of rattly compared to the Remington.. but I haven't seen this for myself. Gotta go check out some Mossbergs.
My Mossberg does seem agricultural compared to other guns, but that is just like comparing an OM617 to gas engines
The Mossberg kind of rattles and the slide makes a very distinctive sound. If the gun is for home defense then the sound of the slide being racked will scare the cr@p out of any burglar...

I think a good thing would be to go to a range and rent or borrow each gun and see which one feels best to you.
