I've been thinking of buying a general purpose semi-auto 12 ga shotgun and while reading about shotguns in this section I found this thread.
I do have a few questions for those in the know:
Should I stay with the same type of shotgun for the same manual of arms? I have an 18.5" HK imported Benelli M1 Super 90 that I really like. So the self-defense shotgun is covered. Best to stay with a semiautomatic Benelli for the same controls?
I found a A400 28" barrel chambered for 3.5" locally for $1100. Seems like a good deal?
What about barrel length? There's a 24" Beretta 1301 available locally as well for $850.
Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
