Shotguns never been anything I wanted to spend much money on. They're a killing machine to me and that's it and that's all.. Have mainly used pumps since I started hunting. Ithaca 37's, Mossy 500's, 870's, Winny 1200's, Browning BPS. They all kill as well as anything. I've used them so much they seem to cycle themselves and they ain't so pretty that I worry about bruising them up in the field. My ex wife bought me a Citori for Christmas one year. I took it hunting once, got a scratch on it almost immediately and there it sat in the safe from then on until I sold it off a few years later. Just too pretty {and expensive} for this poor old country boy to hunt with and beat it all up.
