Had my first shotgun experience today. Been want to go shoot sporting clays for a while now, and my coworker invited me today. Had a blast. Now I am looking into getting a good field gun to get started w/.
I do not know much about shotguns (know more about handguns right now), but I would like to get a good semi-auto, 28-32" barrel, 12 or 20 gauge gun. I would like to spend less than $500 if at all possible.
What is the consensus on the Charles Daly Superior II?
What other guns do you recommend that meet my criteria?
I wouldn't consider usually for handguns, but should I look to buy used?
How should I decide whether to get a 12 gauge or 20 gauge? I was shooting a 12 gauge Mossberg pump w/ 18" barrel, and the recoil did not bother me, so I am not worried about recoil. More I just want to why you would want one vs. the other? Especially if you were thinking about competing w/ it eventually?
Thanks in advance for the responses
