I have been using a Remington Versa Max for the last 8 years
It has been 100% perfect
Light weight and low recoil
It is a 3 1/2" shotgun
But I have shot less than 2 boxes of 3 1/2" shells
As I feel that 3 1/2" shells are not needed
The only fault I have found was the front bead
Remington in one of their cost cutting BS moves
Used plastic for the front bead
So one cold day in the marsh I bumped the front bead on the blind and broke it off flush with the barrel
The hole for the front bead was threaded
So I replaced it with a TruGlo
