Yes. Different levels of involvement with shotgunning will produce different choices of shotguns.
I shoot Trap, 5 stand, Sporting Clays, and Skeet year round. (Mostly Trap) I'd have to have 5 Stoegers to keep in rotation back and forth for warranty repairs to keep up the amount of shooting I do. They aren't designed for that kind of round count.
Most Stoeger O/U owners shoot a round or two of one of the clays games a year, and a hunt or two. Most Stoeger SxS owners (short barrel) load em up with buckshot and stash them somewhere handy, a range trip or two, maybe some grouse hunting.
And there's nothing wrong with that. But when a parent buys a Condor ot a Tri Star Setter for their kid in High School Trap and it doesn't last the season, it is an expensive teaching moment. So those of us who have experience with this try to make sure people understand the difference and get a shotgun that will fill their needs.
