voz, take this advice with a grain of salt, I'm someone who expects to put tens of thousands of rounds a year through a shotgun without a hiccup. But from what I've seen of them, stay away, stay far away! I've seen to many fall apart on the sporting clays course or the skeet range. Now if you just want to take it dove hunting a few times a year it may not be a problem, but don't get it if you plan on shooting a lot. Instead look at the beretta's they sell at Wal Mart (the 3901 I think it is), that is basically just a plain jane version of the 390 which is a great gun in anyone's book. If you can't spare the $500 for one of those either look at a pump (870 or similar), or look for a used auto.
