Hey All,

I was wondering.... now with the end of the AWB, what is the highest capacity semi-auto 12 gauge shotgun (preferably in a tactical configuration)  that a civilian can own for under 1K.

On a related note,  does anyone know if there will be high capacity  Saiga 12 magazines?

depends if you go 3" or 2 3/4"

The M4 has a cap of 5+1 as I recall

If you go M1 - Figure 7+1 w/ 2 3/4...less with 3"

I've had a benelli M1 for about 4 years....absolutely the most fun you can have with a shotty

Thanks, how much does a Benelli M1 90 Super Entry go for these days?

This bad boy is listed for sale on gunbroker?  Is a SPAS worth the money?

No.

For a hi-cap, semi-auto shotgun, get a Saiga. For a very good-shooting semi-auto, get a Benelli, Franchi (not SPAS-12 or 15, one of the high-grades) or Beretta.

Holy Jesus!  I heard that the lever safeties were a problem, but causing it to fire when going from safe to fire is a huge problem.   I can't believe there isn't a lawsuit.
