I've always run a pump shotgun and have never really given self-loaders a look, but Erik Lund makes a pretty good case for them, and it is has me considering giving one a try although I'm still not sure it is a road I want to travel.
I've also looked at the Beretta 1301 and some of the Benelli offerings, but for some reason my attention keeps coming back to this 930. I've read a good bit about them on the interweb, and it seems that they are fine with buckshot and slugs but can be iffy with low powered birdshot.
I'd appreciate some first hand feedback.
Being iffy with birdshot isn't necessarily a deal breaker for me as long as it runs fine with social ammo, but it would be nice to be able to have some lower cost fun time.
