    Smile shotgun help

    hey fellas,
    looking to buy my first shotgun for the waterfowl season.
    i have a budget of around 1000$, im looking for a semi,12gage, with a high rib and preferably gas all though not too picky.
    currently looking at the Stoeger M3000 or the mossberg 930.
    looking to buy at either gun city or a 2nd hand one online.
    the stoeger is my prefered style however it is an inertia system.
    any help and advice would be appreciated
    cheers Milan

    Watching geese take off from a pond and your in the perfect kill zone, it’s like watching a bus take off, low and slow 2 3/4” does a treat
