Had one for many years. It was heavy, well-made and dependable. The action absorbed recoil. I shot trap, many ducks, rabbbits, a few pheasants and my first turkey with it. Learn how to adjust the friction rings at the end of the magazine tube. Steel bevel ring facing away from the bronze friction ring to shoot light loads, bevel the other way to shoot heavy magnum loads.
It was a great shotgun, every bit as good as the A-5 in my opinion.
