Well that's not too bad. I paid around $250 for my bantam a few years ago. you said more than twice as much so I was figuring close to 600 bucks for a Micro, and that would be too much in my opinion. I think they go for around $430-$450 bucks so $460 isn't bad.

Like the others said, just go look at the other two and compare them side by side to the Browning. It is just a better gun over all. Not to mention the bottom eject design is more intricate, so you probably pay for that as well.

Like I was saying earlier, my girlfriend looked at them and really liked the Micro. I took her for a trap lesson last summer and she shot a youth model 1100. She liked it so I thought about getting her a gun. I showed her the Mossberg bantam, then a youth model remington. After that I had the guy behind the counter show her a browning (they keep them behind the counter, not out with the field model remington and mossbergs).

My girlfriend knows next to nothing about firearms. However after holding the browning in her hands and looking it over she no longer had any interest in the mossberg or remington any more.

Unfortunately for her I was not about to drop $450 dollars on a pump gun she may never shoot. I ended up trading my H&R Pardner Pump gun in for a single shot remington SPR in 20 ga.


Green Pea, you made a good choice with the Browning slug gun. They have a better twist rate than the other pump guns with rifled barrels. It should shoot better with the newer faster sabot rounds currently on the market. If I were to get a pump slug gun right now it would be a browning.
