I have one for my waterfowl gun. Takes a beating all season long and still kills ducks day after day. They are compatable with beretta/ benelli mobile chokes. I think I payed $330 off gunbroker a few years ago. Decent gun for the price.

Am wanting a semi auto, I know more problems can occur with a semi than with a pump. Are their semi autos worth buying?

Buy a Beretta Outlander. The synthetic version is in the mid $600s. I got the wood version in the mid $700's a couple of years ago.

I think most of us here got one as a back up. Im buying mine while mines at beretta. Im don't see spending 600 plus on a gun that will be shot 10 times wver.

I had a semi for 3-4 years and it was great. It wasn't taken care of that great either. It had been dropped in the lake a couple times, drug thru mud and it never missed a beat. I would clean it at the beginning and end of the season. The only reason I'm not using it now is because something in the trigger group is broke in half. Not sure what piece it is but for the abuse it went through it was a pretty good gun.

To many times today people cry about this that and the other of a "product" but forget to tell how they drug it through quicksand , a nuclear blast and used the barrel for a jack handle etc.... Also Brock,I wonder that you might be able to replace the trigger group! They are imports but Id think it could be done!

I just saw an escort semi-auto at a pawn shop that looked pretty good. I didn't know anything about them so I didn't pay much attention to it, but I may have to go back and give it a second look.
