    Tell me about Over/under shotguns

    What's a middle of the road shotgun gonna cost me? I don't need a high dollar gun that I'm afraid to hunt with cause it looks to nice, but I also don't want one that's gonna knock my shoulder off each time I shoot it. What's some good brands/models to look for?
    Thanks!

        Middle of the road is going to be $1000 or so.

        Skip the yildiz Daly’s and stoegers.
        IMo the next gun up from these listed above is going to be the Franchi (aspire I think). Next up will be a base model Citori then a base mode beretta. The good thing about O/U is the durability. You can buy a great used gun, save hundreds of dollars and have a gun that will last forever unless you plan on shooting sporting clays weekly!

          Lol!!

          CZ makes a decent sub $1k gun. Otherwise keep your eye on the classifieds.

              I'm a Beretta fan myself. Have pounded several thousand rounds through a few and they are beast!

                and why is that? Actually they're more than that but anyway, is a nice gun.

                      They are nice but they kick. An after market recoil pad is offered for them and it made mine much more enjoyable

                        Make sure the gun fits you first. Biggest mistake in buying a shotgun is going after brand
                        someone suggests and then it does not fit. Agree with the above post so far as far as quality and fair price.

                          A 3/4 steel dowel in the butt adds weight and drops the kick even more. Gives them a better feel

                            Exactly right. Fit is the most important aspect if quality is the same. I can’t shoot a Beretta worth spit, but I can shoot the heck out of a Browning. They are just stocked differently.
