Ok guys I got a question. I know I might cause some debate but I'm looking for a good all around semi 12ga. I've been looking at the Benelli's and am really liking the Cordoba. Also the Winchester SX3. Whats everyone's thoughts and recommendations with reason?
Moved you to the rifle/shotgun section.
Saiga 12 with a 20 rd drum because they run good and are cheap

Might be better posting this in the Rifle/Shotguns section.
What do you plan on using it for? Hunting, HD, watermelon murdering sprees?

Which is what I was going to suggest.
I've got a high interest in shotguns, but not a lot of shotgun experience. I own Mossy 590A1s, and have shot other similar pump actions as well as shooting a break-open 410 as a kid.
I've had my eyes on a Saiga 12 for the last few months, though.
Well i would use it for clays, and some hunting. No slug shooting though...many birds.
Things i like about the Benelli Cordoba.
Extended choke tube...yes you can buy them but out of the box = nice
Ported barrel
high visibility sights
ease of assembly/disassembly...this is true with all the Benelli's and arguable with most guns now

These seem like a great home defense but not something i would want to take to the woods if it came down too it...i have an 870 i use for home defense but this might be a good upgrade in that dept....
I really enjoy my benelli montefeltro. I would reccomend a benelli.
I like the Benelli M1, mine gets used for everything from clays to 3 gun to home defense and is utterly reliable. I have had excellent results with ammo from the cheap walmart stuff all the way through buckshot and slugs (both full velocity and reduced recoil). It also has interchangeable choke tubes and is currently setup to hold 9 rounds, it is also pretty lightweight with soft recoil.
I have also been fortunate to spend a little time with the FN SLP. This shotgun is also a great shooter with soft recoli and solid performance. Obviously I tend to like the tactical type weapons, they seem to work for everything pretty well. If you're looking for one gun for everything these are my favorites.

Polychoke makes an adjustable choke for the Saiga 12, works great.
Many companies make compensators that are easy to install.
You can add optics or get a Chaos extended-rail and put any sights on it you want.
AND it's easy to take down like an AK.
Depends on how much work you want to put into it. You could upgrade a Saiga to be better at what you're wanting to do, but Benelli will be great right out of the box and there are no hidden costs.
