Anyone have one? I've been wanting a new(ish) pump gun, and the place next to my work has one that I assume is slightly used. Just under $200, with a nice camo job.

Anyways, just wanted to ask the group mind for thoughts, opinions, feedback?

TIA

I've had one since 1992? Whenever they first came out with it, I was poor back in those days and needed a cheap 3.5 mag. for duck hunting. I can honestly say I never really cleaned it with thousands of rounds through it, mostly 2.75 shells trap shooting. The most I have ever done is blow it out with gun scrubber and lube it with break free. I have never had a problem with feeding or chambering, except just now. I tried to chamber a 3.5 shell and it won't lock up, looks like the chamber is to full of grime. I'll clean it this weekend. Anyhow, don't think you can go wrong with it.

I got one cheap, cut down the barrel to 18.5" for a HD gun.

Its a HEAVY gun. Honestly since I'm using it strictly as HD, I should have just bought a lighter pump in the first place...but now that I've sunk money into it I'm kind of invested I guess. It goes bang. I like mine, just wish it wasn't so darn heavy.

I like mine.

Update: Got it today! I've handled it, it feels good, I'll be shooting sometime soon.

I do have a question though; The gun came with a turkey choke on it. I don't want it on there for my skeet shooting and whatnot, but I don't want to mess up the threads. Is there a cap or something available that can be screwed in that will not act as a choke in any way, but will protect the threads from the shot?

Thanks in advance, guys.

I'm not sure I understand your question, but there are other choke tubes available, so you can swap them out.
