[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 2882514, member: 92702"] Another excellent gun. Same price as a SX4. They tend to have weak firing pin springs. Care must be taken lubing the firing pin in cold weather. Close tolerances between pin and bolt. Every shotgun has its faults, and that includes my $40k custom Kolar. Like I said earlier, The main difference is how they feel and fit. Most any gun in the list above will serve you well after you learn it. Go to a clays range and most folks will let you shoot their gun. Biggest problem with that is most of them will be an O/U. They are not a bad choice either. Having two chokes often is better than having a third shell. There are lots of choices around $2k. A sleeper is the ATI at under $700. Many of them feel, point and swing better than any auto on the planet, especially the ones over $10k. The 690 series Berettas are fabulous in this regard for a mid priced O/U, and very competitive in the summer at clays. If I could have only one shotgun for everything, it would be one of these with 30" barrels. [/QUOTE]
