[QUOTE="poopgiggle, post: 1327582, member: 6406"] 1. You get what you pay for 2. Gun fit is extremely important. If you really want to do it right, pay an instructor for his time to see how different guns at the store fit you. At the super budget end, Remington Spartans have sketchy fit and finish but they're built like tanks. Stoeger Condors get mixed reviews. Next up are the CZ-branded O/Us made by Huglu. They're priced well but people report getting lemons every once in a while. When you start getting north of $1k into Browning and Beretta territory everything is going to be pretty well made; it just comes down to what fits you the best and what you can find at a good price. Makes like Krieghoff, Perazzi, or Kolar start to get you into the "could get a nice used car for this" price range. At the top of the heap you have people like Purdey, Boss, or Holland & Holland. Be prepared to mortgage your house. I've never had the opportunity to shoot a $75,000 shotgun but I've gotten to hold one and it was a work of art. [/QUOTE]
