I searched the threads and didn't find anything that addresses my question but if I missed a thread and this has been asked, I apologize.
I am looking for a 12 gauge semi auto. I anticipate using it for turkey season and maybe 1-2 times per year for waterfowl. I am trying to stay around $1k or less but if something stands out for more; my budget may increase. I am hoping for something with low felt recoil and doesn't require a lot of maintenance. I have looked at the SX3, a300, a350, a400, SBE II, browning A5, Stoeger 3500 (I know that is a wide range). I will probably shoot it three times during turkey season and go duck hunting 1-2 times at most per year. I don't know if I really need 3.5" for my use. Any help/suggestions and the reason would be great. Thank you
