[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 1275917, member: 6777"] The Benelli ,Beretta and Weatherby are all brand name companies. But these are all fairly new models who haven't stood the test of time. The Remington 1100 has been out for 50 years. Like the Browning A-5 the 1100 has had all the bugs worked out. I don't have much expierence with the 11-87 but its been out long enough to get the kinks out. I wonder who makes the Weatherby shotgun? All the past models of Weatherby shotguns (1970's-90's) have been pretty much junk. As far as the rusty finish. I doubt the clerks at Bass pro have a clue about wiping the gun down with a oily gun rag after each customer has handled it. Last time I was in the one in Broken Arrow most of the guns were looking shop worn. Originally the idea behind the 11-87 was that it was supposed to be a gun that you could load a light skeet load, an average field load and a magnum in it in any order and it would shoot them all with no adjustments to the gun. That way you could have 1 gun for all shotgunning instead of 2-3 guns. the barrels were made thicker to accomedate the choke tubes. [/QUOTE]
