Happy with my xtrema II berreta
See, this thread is now a mess. The main purpose for OP would be wingshooting, which requires a different stock setup than home defense, turkey hunting, or deer hunting. Most of the shots for deer, turkey, and human will be shots at targets on the ground, where a stock with less or no drop at comb would be ideal to help reduce muzzle climb after firing. Meanwhile, try shooting an overhead bird that is flying directly over you with a straight stock with no drop at comb. It is tough. The drop in comb allows the stock to be in the right position when the gun is in different shooting positions.
With all that said, there are a couple of other threads on here about the best waterfowling shotgun, wing shooting shotgun, etc. for the OP to get some answers to his question.
The M4 is a nice gun, but I wouldn't take mine waterfowling, dove hunting, or clay shooting. Then again, I happen to own other shotguns that fit those niches.
Does this mean we still have to stick to the thread's Semi-Automatic requirement or can we now propose an O/U or a side by side?
Who says evil "assault weapons" are not used for hunting?
Maine 2015:
55 Yards- my first bird
Ohio last Spring:
Both of these were close shots, about 20 yards or so.
a field hunt bird
a deep woods mountain ridge hunt bird
Edit:
BTW, it does reliably cycle light skeet 1 oz. loads. Not at first it didn't but after being "broken in" with slugs and buckshot, she eats ANYTHING. Just so you know.
What's up guys' favorite make and model of this type?
In the market soon. I have plenty of pump action so I'm looking to add a new style!
Wow. Thanks guys. You've given me a lot of research to do!
did i miss an earlier reply to the question about how u planned on using it ?
i saw folks go off with tons of various guns that may not suit u at all without you even answering that question. ijs

Sorry, I guess I didn't. An effective cross between wing hunts and home defense.
I'm not up that high, I'm wanting to stay under 1,500.
Thank you for the detail - duck mainly and maybe some goose. Home defense is really an after thought because I have other firearms for that too.
with 1500 as the price point I would have said an 1100 wing gun and a 400$ home defense gun. why compromise between two very different purposes when you can easily have both specialized.
and several others that are completely out of line.
