You want to know an honest answer? Because I can. Also, I believe in the saying "you get what you pay for"

BTW, my Stoeger's got what made Benelli what it is, the Inertia System. Wanna know how much I bought it for brand new in Max-4? $450
wat im trying to say is that with a mossberg you get more than what you pay for
I don't think so. But to each his own.
true we'll leave at that i guess

i thought matthews were supposed to be like the best...............
the thing i dont like about my mossy is its UGLY
with shotguns yeah i think benelli and stoeger and franchi are nicer and maybe better idk, but my mossy 500 gets the job done without any issues. stogers and franchis just look good on the wall. winchester is better than all those. i have my grandpas from whenm he was young and its a 1940 one. its a winchester model 12 12 gauge with a full choke barrel. he sea duck hunted with it and that tears guns up, its got some nicks, scratches, and stains but ill be damed the thing still pops out rounds lie its nothing.
i like my mossberg but ill bet a benelli or stoeger or franchi or winchester will last longer

Not necessarily. It all depends on how you treat the gun.

ive been shooting bows for 21 years. ive shot 5 different mathews modles over a 9 year period. i have my own bow shop set up in my basement....im into archery slighlty. i have never had more problems w/ one brand of bow more then any of the mathews. the service was good but if they were tha nice of a bow i wouldnt know anythng about ther customer servce. would !!?

the only mathews bow have thats worth a damn s my herrtage...ts a tradtonal bow.

f you want to have a debate about them start another thread and ll be glkad to get nvolved n a heated dscuson about 'em and go through a a well documanted lst of faults from my notes

_____________________________
Not trying to start a fight here, just curious. What faults have you found with the mathews line? I've never had a problem with a mathews bow other than ordinary string and cable wear and tear as with any bow. Is there something I need to be watching outfor I need to keep an eye on?
