Pardon my ignorance (and let me assure you, I'm sure it's ignorance on my behalf...)
Why are over under shotguns so desired?
In the age of reliable semi-auto shotguns; the only reason I can think of to use a pump is for the classic feel, odd shells (pump to feed anything), or extra reliability.
But I can't think of any reason to go for an over under unless it's just something you really want.
I kind of think of it similar to semi-auto vs bolt vs trap door. There is really very little reason to go trap door (from a performance standpoint.)
Yet over unders are incredibly desired. I'm assuming it's something I'm missing. So; educate me!
