[QUOTE="snow, post: 151819, member: 1056"] I also have a old but like new belgium A-5 auto mag,bought my 1st A5 new in the early 70's,damn good killing machine,32"barrel fixed full choke,retired it from waterfowling when steel was mandetory,still used it for pheasants for years... tho,sad to say I sold the darn thing a couple years ago as it was collecting dust in the cabinet,my old but new A5 just sits and looks pretty next to the benlellis and beretta's. Run a 10ga for pass shooting or wary honkers/snows that won't decoy and swing wide,even tho the SBE's ive had are 3.5 none pattern worth a shit shooting 3.5's thru a mod choke but I like the idea of using a magnum gun as we shoot alot seem to be more heavy duty. From sept to april and in 3" hevi shot and hevy metal has the range vs steel in smaller pellet size which puts more pellets on target plus you can use full chokes w/o damaging your choke shooting hevi shot. Folks that are felt recoil sensitive should consider the beretta A400 xtreme,might be the softest shooting magnum gun on the market todayand might be the best gas cycling auto loader in cold weather to boot today in regards to high end shotguns. I agree as stated above you get what you pay for in the shotgun world,nothing pisses me off more than a gun malfunction in the field. [/QUOTE]
