I have had my mossberg 535 for about 2 years now and I have had no complaints. It has worked on turkey, pheasant, quail, ducks, and geese in all sorts of weather conditions. I have never had a failed ejection. I chose it mostly because of the location of the safety and the action release, which comes in especially handy during fast-paced upland hunts. The action may feel loose when you hold it in the store, but trust me when I say that I have never regretted buying this gun!
