[quote=gophergunner]I've been thinking about picking one of these up, but from talking to a couple trusted individuals here, I understand they both had substantial misgivings about the feel of these guns when shouldering them. I'm guessing it must have something to do with the English stock. Does anyone carry one of these, and if so, what's your opinion? I'm specifically interested in a lightweight gas operated semi-auto, mainly used for grouse. 20 gauge or 12 gauge, in that order of preference.
Thanks for your input, guys.
You need to actually handle one of these before you do anything.. Try mounting it to the shoulder several times..
I cannot use an English straight-stock.. My wrist just won't bend enough to be comfortable at all..

^^^ This ^^^ X 10
I`ve had the 1100 Special Field in 12 and 20 and thought they would be more comfortable to shoot if they had a top tang safety.
Wrong, I tried a BPS Upland Special in 20 ga. for a season.
It just wasn`t comfortable to shoot.
I ended up with a pair of Benelli Montefeltros in 12 and 20 ga.
Couldn`t be happier!!
