Looking for a new shotgun and would like some recs as to what I should look at. I've always been a Remington guy but hated my only semi auto which was a 11-87. I like the Beretta Extrema from what I've seen.
Will he using this for upland game, maybe some small game and trap/skeet. So it needs to be multi purpose. Would like a nice quality gun and thinking I want a wood stock over synthetic. I'm thinking of selling a AR to fund it, so $1-2k range for budget. What say the hive? Thanks |

What did you not like about the 11/87 for hunting and casual clays? It's not a bad field gun but I'd pick my 870 over it for some reason. Just not my favorite. Now I've shot some nice 1100s 1100s suck as a hunting gun, not nearly as reliable as the 11-87 unless you open up the gas ports. |

Now I've shot some nice 1100s For all practical purposes, the 1100 and the 1187 have identical exterior dimensions. The differences are mechanical and internal, allowing the 1187 to fire a larger spectrum of ammunition. My advise to you is to go to a place with a lot of shotguns....a club, Cabela's, whatever. Pick up and feel as many different guns as you can. Find one that feels good and then go buy it. |
