How about a Browning Maxis, Browning A5 or a Winchester SX3? 🤷🏼‍♂️

You guys have me considering other options now.... what is the reason for the hump on the A5?

How come nobody want's a pump gun anymore ? Too much kick ? Can't chew bubble gum and walk at the same time ? Crypes damn near everybody had a pump when I was a kid and they killed a shytload of game. Ithaca 37's, Remington 870's, Winchester 12's, Mossberg 500's were everywhere. Most of those old pumps still work 50 years later if they were given reasonable care. Screw that cheap azz Turkish junk. Buy yourself a good pump gun and be set for life.

Tristar are not junk Turkish guns anymore. Their fit/finish makes a current Remington 870 look like trash.

One must keep up with current gun trends rather than decade-old lack of experience if you plan to purchase something new.

It is a old reliable design.
But in the hands of a person with dullard like reaction time I seen on a dove feild years ago.
Its just a useless peice of steel and wood then in their hands.

The reason for the hump on the new A5 is so that it looks like the old A5. If you want the best, I'd go with a Benelli M2.

Of those, TriStar. Weatherby takes second. 20ga only if you're willing to pay for tungsten shells.

Beretta A300s go on sale for less than $600 pretty regularly, though.
