Hey yall, If anyone has ever had any experience at all with this gun, I need any info you can provide. I'm looking into getting a good shotgun I can do some minor hunting with and for Home Defense as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've owned one for 19 years and not once have I had problem one with it. IMO they are great guns with a great price tag.

I have a 1300 Defender. Never have attempted to hunt with it...but I use it exclusively for the other purpose you mentioned....home defense. Its a cannon....lol. Good gun....kicks like a truck though...lmao.
