RE: "The Survey Says"!
I just love this question... Every Hunter wants to know the "perfect" all purpouse scatter gun... Bennelli Nova is my choice.. I bought mine fresh off the shot show.. and have owned it for three years and NEVER have had a problem..28" mod 3" no# 2's for just about everything on the water...Crank up the shot size to 3 1/2's for geese....Takeum

I bought my first 870 in 72 and never had any trouble with but it was stolen in a B+E. in 84. I bought an 870 express a few years later. I use mod.,improved,and improved cylinder, depending on the hunt itself.I have covered it in mud ,sand ,marsh crap ,and had to retieve it from the bottom of a slew once when our boat sunk.Itwas the only one in working order out of 4 shotguns that went for a swim,the others were various autos. I am also a southpaw and use the righthanded model with no trouble at all. I was brought up using an Ithica 20ga but I prefer my 870 anytime.
That is one man`s opinion.

You can shoot waterfowl with any gun mentioned here. My 2 cents says hurry up and pick one out because teal season is less than 6 months away. And it is not too early to start going through your decoys to get them up to snuff.

I'm with Bud Light it's never to early to start working on decoys.The first chance i can get in to the shed past the snow I will start getting them ready for the folling year.As for my shotgun that I use - Mossburg 835 and my back up gun would be my grand fathers Model 12 with bismith shot. It's a great gun to shoot. Shawn
