Some people go for quality but for a work shottie I prefer cheap but effective. I only use it on rabbits and hares, short barrel is great for night shooting from ute. It replaced a 28" shottie, which was far too long and inconvenient for my useage.
    All the big name Italians have Turkish barrels. Tells you something.
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!
