Shotgun Help!!!
Shotgun Help!!!
Looking to get a new shotgun for next season, what does everyone recommend? I am wanting to stay under $800. I have been looking at the Franchi I-12 and the Stoeger Model 2000, really wanting to stay with the semi-auto. Anyone have any advise on these two or any other good suggestions?

Re: Shotgun Help!!!
My x3 cleared the 800 pretty easy. Not heard anything bad about those two some talk about the beretta at wlamart cant remember the model. I have seen some remaining x2 out there for around 800. I would take a x2 over any of the others mentioned. I guess the 3" x3 maybe $800 didnt think about that.

Re: Shotgun Help!!!
Out of those two I would go with the I-12. But for $50 more you could get an X-3 3''. You should also check out the Beretta A-390.
Damn, i thought I had that one
Is that buddy of yours tryin to blow that call or make love to it?

I can sell you a SX-3 3" for 995 plus tax. SX-3 3.5" for 1095.00 and the SX-3 3.5" in MODB for 1250.00 plus tax. But If you just have to stay under 800 you won't get much in a semi auto except maybe the Stoger or some of the lesser name brands like the Tri-Star.

Is the same gun as the H&R excel. I got my excel for 325 that's with tax and camo. They are good guns!

Saw a Beretta A-390 at the Columbus Walmart with a $557 price tag on it.
Re: Shotgun Help!!!
I have had my M2000 for several years now and love it. Never failed me. Best $375 I have ever spent on a shotgun. It looks like crap as I have abused it, but it keeps on shooting and has NEVER jammed on me.

I also am looking for a cheap but good and reliable 20 guage semi-auto for the wife, probably would have to get the youth model any suggestions on that?
