As long as it fits you, models and brand should not matter..

Can you hit what you aim at? Does it go bang when you pull the trigger? As long as it works then it doesn't matter how much you paid for it. I can't understand how the gun makers can justify the price of the 3.5 guns. How much more can it really cost to make a gun shoot a 3.5 shell over a 3 shell. $500 more is crazy. Congratulations on your new gun. Keep us informed on how you like it.

Congratulations on your new gun...I absolutely love my Tristar.

The gunmakers wanting $1,200+ for a plastic shotgun can kiss my fat azz...I'll spend my money somewhere else.

I didn't know they made them in 12ga. My 9yo has the 20ga and can dust ass with it way better than with his 870 pump. It will float 4 just like Beretta & Benelli

Lol....I shoot a Baikal (you'll probably have to go look that up). Got it used 10 years ago for $200. It's jammed 3 times in 10 years.....I can live with that.

I've got one and love it. I've heard a lot of people say the stock gets loose and so did mine. Take your butt vBulletin pad off and tighten it good from the get go. Mine was about 4 turns out and luckily I had a long enough allen wrench in boat. I did that last year on opening day andvit will not move now.

I have a TriStar hunter mag O/U. Its not an Italian art piece but it goes boom and fits me well. And the camo dip is nice.
