The Stoeger and the Franchi are both good inertia driven shotguns at a reasonable price. This is my first year with the Stoeger and I have been beating 3" BB's through for the entire early goose season and havent had a single malfunction.

If you opt for an ID gun shoot a box of the heaviest waterfowl loads your gun will safely shoot out of it. Do this before you fire any light trap loads to break the gun in. When cleaning an ID gun do not leave alot of oil in the action. They tend to jam with too much oil. Every one I know including myself runs their ID guns almost completely dry. This will also keep them from freezing in cold weather. Hope this helps you out!
