RE: New shotguns
Benelli SBE- worth every penny if you want a 3.5". Expensive?...That's ofcourse relative. I personaly use a Benelli M1 field 3" for ducks and a BPS 10 gauge 3 1/2 for geese and turkey. I had a browning Gold 3 1/2 and it was a beautiful gun- looks wise. It performed well in the upland world and trap, but jammed in ugly waterfowl weather, especially with the 3 1/2". Just my opinion through experience.
