My Benelli has a 26'' barrel and never had a click issue. Second season with it and have yet to do a major teardown to clean it. Just like my Beretta every time you pull the trigger it goes bang.

Re: New GSP pup not eating much
My pup was not a big eater for the first couple of weeks either. The breeder sent her with her normal food, just too much of a change I believe. Be patient and the pup will settle in and start to eat.

I would guess that it is to meet the demand for the guy who can't decide on a breed. I've got a gsp that loves water retrieves and a lab that is a great upland hunter.I dont see the need or the reasoning for such a breeding.
