I have a 28 ga. Red Label. I like it. Mine has the pistol grip and 26" barrels. I use it for grouse. It's a light gun to carry if you are wandering around in the mountains all day. A lot of people with more money to spend on shotguns than I have don't like Red Labels. People who put tens of thousands of rounds through shotguns tend not to like them either. I like how Red Labels just fall open. Some people don't like how easy the Red Label opens and some even think they are shot loose when they are actually designed to open like that. Anyhow, I like mine a lot but then I'm not a big shotgunner, I'm a guy who likes to knock around in the woods. I also don't tend to fault Red Labels for not being as durable or having the wood to metal fit of shotguns that cost substantially more.
