Benelli Supernova 12 gauge, Winchester Model 1300 in 20 gauge, and a New England Firearms .410 single shot. The Supernova is the only one that gets used on a regular basis and I love it. I love the recoil reducing stock which is why I went with it over the regular Nova.

Cool gun thanks for sharing...what does it weigh?

H&R .410 break open first duck a Woodie in ET creekbottoms, Winchester 1300 pump 12 for graduation present from parents, Rem 870 Wingmaster for years, Rem 870 Express for even more years, and six years ago bought a Beretta 390, still use the express for turkey, the 390 for duck, geese, and doves. Still have all but the Wingmaster, traded it for a duck boat years ago.

Cool gun thanks for sharing...what does it weigh? It is quite handfull.  Base is about 8#, plus aluminum forearm instead of oem plastic, plus new skeleton adjustable stock, plus polychoke. plus other bells and whistles. I would say it is pushing 10-11 pounds. Plus ammo. It is a workout to lug it around full day of a dove or pheasant hunt. But I like my gun. Like lack of felt recoil. Can shoot 200-300 bird shots and not feel sorry next day.

I am not going to deny, it is still has a decent recoil. Just not as bad as regular semi-auto or pump. When you shoot 3" heavy loads it does not have that teeth-shattering-bone-rattling-jab into your shoulder. More like a strong push. So if you miss 1st shot, you can get on target really fast. And if you did not hold stock tight against your shoulder - you are not gonna be sorry next day for your mistakes That is actually a pretty cool looking turkey rig, but I find that the sound of cupped ducks has incredible recoil reducing properties...

Beretta Xtrema2 - Dove & Duck Remington/Browning A5 20ga from 1941
My first shotgun was a single shot 20ga. I used it to teach my daughter on. Now she has a Browning BPS pump in 20 gauge.
If I was getting a new gun today it would probably be a Beretta Extreme. It has a few improvements on my Xtrema and is lighter.
I hope to be handed down my father's 1965 Browning Lightning Superposed one day.
BTW, I'm of Belgian descent and love my Belgian made guns, but I really like my Italian made guns too.

Started out with a 1930s single shot savage, made for Sears, 20 gauge given to me by my pepaw.
Shot 870s for a long time growing up.
Now I shoot a weatherby sa-08 and a stoeger m3500.

First one was H&R single shot 12 ga.
When I was fully grown, I graduated to a Browning Light A5.
Then on to gas operated a few years after that with a Beretta 390. (I still own that one and though I don't shoot a 12 often, I still like that gun).
Since then, I've owned many. The guns I shoot most nowadays are a Beretta White Wing in 20 ga. for dove and pheasant and a CZ 28 ga. for quail.
it's all good....

Still shooting my first: Win. Mod. 12, 16 ga. No longer original, on it's 3rd re-bluing, 2nd stock, 2nd. rib, Chokes installed years ago. Nothing sweeter.
Been thru lots others. Picked up Franchi 720, 20 ga. recently, probably order a 28 also.
