Anyone here have one or shot one? I had one in the early 1980s. Pretty cool guns, but complicated. Lots of switches and doodads. Looked like a weapon from the future, though. PS I was a real novice still back then, and today I'd likely not think it so complicated.

I’ve got one. Purchased it around 1994. I’ve probably run about 25 rounds thru it. It’s just sat in the safe for 20+ years.

The bigger question is why you waste your money on one?

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

That is the gun that made me realize you shouldn't ever buy guns based on how cool they look in movies.

When I was stationed in Spain, a friend used one to shoot skeet. Worked great, but got a lot of looks from the "B" gun snobs.

PS, although it has the capacity to be used as both a pump shotgun and a semiauto, it's intended to be used in semiauto mode only, when using normal shells. The pump action feature was intended only for bean bag loads, tear gas loads, and other oddball shotgun loads that don't have normal recoil.
