I'm not a really big shotgunner, I hunt geese every year with a model 935 3.5 inch mossberg auto and this gun of mine has been a dandy, however I cant say the same about my buddies his jams often. I have a rem 870 that has never given me any trouble and a rem 1100 that works great as long as kept very clean. Last year I got to dove hunt with a benelli M2 and I can say that this shotgun was by far the best that I have every fired. The load time was unbelievable, never jamed once in 2 cases of shells fired through it. The next time I invest in a shotgun it will be a Benelli.
