Please help me choose a new autoloading shotgun
I have decided to give myself a new shotgun for Christmas. But after looking at alot of them, I can't decide which on i want. If anyone has any info on any of these guns, please tell me what you think about them.
1.Traditions- Don't know much about them but was told they bought out Ithaca, and are using their factories. The gun felt very light and fit very well. Just dont know about their reliability or much else about them.
2. Beretta a390-Good fitting gun,good reputation of reliability, But the synthetic stock just felt paper thin to me,but then again it could just be my imagination.
3. Stoeger- Never even looked at one until this weekend but it looks like a nice gun. Didn't even know until the guy told me but the stoeger i looked at had a Benelli action in it. If this gun has the reputation of a Benelli i might would get it.
4.Charles Daly-Know nothing at all about these guns, but the one i held and played with fit me like a glove. Fit wise that was the best feeling gun i have ever held. But the only place i have ever seen these guns are at wally world and that leaves me suspicious about their quality.
5. Benelli m-90-- At around $850 This is the absolute highest I will even think about going. And even this much is going to hurt really bad. But it is a good fitting gun and i would love to have one,But I am not going to buy a gun that cant take a little bit of abuse, but i am sure the benelli can.
I know this isn't all of the autoloaders out there, but these are the ones that felt good to me. I'm primarily a Remington man but i held the 1100 and the 11-87 and it was like trying to shoulder a log. Not much better with the Winchester. But if I am going to drop this much money on an autoloader, i'ts going to be one of the ones above. That is if anyone can help me decide. Thanks everyone.
