there decent guns
I had a gun store for many yrs and sold over 17,000 guns, so I have a little experience with guns LOl
BUT if I was to recommend a shotgun, I would maybe suggest a remington 11/87, and just a 3" model
my reasoning is, you can get one, and then get a slug barrel
as the stoger you listed doesn't offer a slug barrel, and to be honest the 3 1/2 '' really isn't needed unless your a super die hard duck/goose hunter
the ammo costs a lot more, and most guns that shoot 3.5's in semi's can be rather picky on what they wil cycle well in 2 3/4" and then 3" rounds, the one's you ill use most often(beibng 2 3/4" one's)
the arvantage of having a longer barrel for ducks geese/ small gam
and then a shorter one for slugs, can be a big help in hitting targets and swinging the gun
MOST all modern guns are made rather well
but the major names, you can find assories a lot easier, there are a more parts out there for guns like rem and Mossberg than maybe all the rest together
here is a link for a used one in Ohio, that comes with 2 barrels
its almost impossible to wear out a shotgun for the average guy, they just cannot afford the amount of rounds it would take, so if it looks good, not signs of anyone boggering on it with screw drivers, odds are its a fine working gun
don't be scared of used shotguns
rifles can be more picky on buying used, but that's another subject
