    I've wasted money on a whole lot worse things in the past...and they certainly weren't as useful as a firearm would be

          Anyone have a link to the shotgun on Walmart’s website?

            $200 worth of jam-o-matic would be my guess.

              Is it really selling for 200 is my question?

                Not the post comprehensive review ever but this guy didn't have any issues with his from what I can tell based on the limited data.

                I do have experience with Escort semi-autos and up to about 7,000-10,000 rounds they are fine.

                  To save ~ $900, I'll roll 'em and deal with a couple boxes worth of cycling issues until the gun is broken in. FWIW, I can promise you you're no harder on yours than I am on mine. This isn't an effort to belittle your opinion - as it has merit - only to point out that just because it's expensive, doesn't mean it's good. I stood next to 2 guys all duck season shooting guns that 3 or 4 times what mine did and are newer, but they had issues while I had none.

                    Makes me want to buy one and just use it as my primary shotgun and see how long it will last.

                    Save me time from having to clean my expensive shotgun.

                      Everyone is welcome to their opinion. I’m not trying to belittle yours either. But I think you should read my initial post again when you say expensive. I said $600 and up is what I would start at in a semi auto. The weatherby SA-08 and Framchi Affinity can be had right around there, as well as an 1100 or versamax. All of these are quality and reliable, and really at some points bargains. Do I love my Benelli? Absolutely, but I also love my Franchi. But below that price point what I have shot/handled my recommendation would hands down be a pump. And my 870 is still in the safe as well. I have heard good things about some semi’s under where I recommended. I also have seen issues from them myself. My recommendation is based on what I would trust in personally. You trust in something differing from me, nothing wrong with that.

                        Not trying to be a know it all, only giving my opinion. Any other dads on here that have had kids shoot 4H/Ag Clays from 9 YO to 18 YO might back me up. These kids are hard on guns & go through 1000's of rounds every year. I had two kids so double that for me. Both probably ran through 20 cases/year/kid. You can go to any of these shoots and look at the guns in the rack. Most will start with a B, and most are Beretta. Bellini & Browning are next. I had one issue with daughters A400. Took it in & told them a 17 YO girl wore their gun out. They fixed it for free.

                        Son is a duck hunter as well so his gun gets that kind of abuse.

                        PS: My gun is a Remington 870 made in the 1980's. I might shoot two boxes/year.

                        I'm a chemical plant worker. I do not have any financial interest in any shotgun manufacturer.

                          From the description this operating system is exactly like an sa-08 (anotger Turkish gun) except the gas piston part of the gun is more advanced.

                          Sa08 is probably made in the same factory.

                          I would love to see one in person and tear it down for a closer look.

                            I've had brownings benellis and berettas break on me, way before they should, for what they cost.

                            I tried a browning due to the other two having problems. My maxus is about to go back to browning because it is chewing up the action spring plunger. I dont care that its wearing out a 13 dollar part in less than a year. I'm worried about why it is chewing it up. Surely there is a bigger problem causing it.

                              $200 Semiauto at Walmart

                              How bad can it really be? Heck, people still believe in mossberg shotguns, I don’t happen to be one of those people myself.

                              I bet most of us have wasted $200 at a bar trying to get laid.

                                Bought one in a 20 gauge from a guy on here. It was new in the box. We ran a case of shells through it during dove season and had absolutely no issues. I was kind of surprised that we didn’t have issues. I like it...
