Postie, I could NOT agree more with you....I don't believe there has ever been a tougher, more reliable shotgun ever built....I own two, in a 12 ga. and 20 ga....neither has ever jammed or failed to fire....and, I just bought a 12 ga. for my grandson for Christmas.
I've killed running rabbits at 80 yards, using 3" shells and a full choke with the 12 ga.
