I've been using my new Citori 16 ga exclusively all season, and I love it.

I've got about 1000 rounds through it so far, and it's an excellent gun indeed!

Which ever is cheapest down at the local gun shop ) Currently I have a winchester 12ga in 3" and a savage 12ga in 2 3/4" Also have an old Rem 10ga that my grandfarther used in the concert demolition back in the '30-'40's. Not good for and kind of hunting, barrel has been shortend a bit too much :roll:

I also use a J.C. Higgins 30-30 for my deer rifle, works great on the local blacktails

Lanber o/u - 2097 12 bore.

ruger red lable 20ga or browning mod 12

I shoot a Citori, a bps stalker, or a charles daly field depends on my mood.

I'm a Beretta fan. I have both a Urika 391 in 20 gauge and a 3901 in 12 gauge.

Me:
remington 870 express 12g
beretta 390 12g
ithaca/skb 500 20 g
harington and richardson pardner 20g
My Dad:
benelli montefeltro 12g
styre sxs 20g
bernadelli sxs 20g
remington 870 12g and 28g
winchester model 12 12g
and i think thats about it, personally i lile the 390 best my dad the bernadelli

Remington 11-48 410 bore
Browning 525 20ga.
Mossberg bolt action 410 bore


Trying to decide between a CZ-Bobwhite 28ga. or a Browning Citori White Lightening in 28ga.

Franchi Veloce SP for upland bird hunting
Beretta Extrema for waterfowl hunting

Too numerous to list. With four sons my excuse was they all needed one of everything also.

From A - W, foreign and domestic. Pumps, semi-autos, O/Us, SxS from .410 to 10 ga., 26" - 32", 2 3/4" to 3 1/2". Prefer light in the field and heavy for waterfowling.

Gun used the most last year: Beretta 391 20 ga., 26" barrel.

Gun that fits me the worst: brother's Benelli SBE II, 12 ga.

Beretta onyx 12 ga love it

all mine are beretta's

i love my benelli SBE II but also have remmington and mossburg.

Browning Citori Lightning 20
Remington 1100 Special Field 12

Benlli M-2 all the way. I used to shoot a Frianchi and Remington but love my Benelli.

Ithaca model 37 16 Ga Featherlight(1959 model) Doesn't get any Sweeter to me.Guess I'm an old dog with old habits.

Berreta. Both my 12 semi-auto and over/under both are Berreta. Used to be a Browning guy until my A5 jammed every time I shot dove loads. Still use browning for deer hunting.

Hi all I use nummerous shotguns!! I shoot alot of sporting clays to keep my accuracy up! I use a Berretta Silver Pigeon II combo set 20/28, I aslo shoot a SKB 20 gauge, I also hunt with a Berretta 391 urika and I also hunt/shoot a BLack Eagle II. Out of those guns I enjoy shooting and hunting with my SKB its light and very durable.

Right now I have 3 ... any my favorite is the JC Higgins M.20 - 12ga. pump with 26" modified barrel and 2 3/4" chamber. So smooth you hit the slide release and it just falls open. It was my grandpa's gun. ... Unfortunately it also pre-dates steel shot (and I can't afford $33/10 shell hevi-shot for waterfowl or doves) ... so I have been carrying the rossi 12 ga. single break (your shoulder) action. I say break your shoulder because it only ways about 5lb-12 oz. I shot a box of target loads and had a bruised shoulder for week. ... (the recoil at that weight is about 30% more than a normal 7.5 lb gun)

Really, I know that I want an remington 870 when I get enough extra dollars. I got one when I turned 16, but it also pre-dated steel shot, choke tubes, and 3" shells; so I sold it (and didn't get enough $ for it I'm sure, it was a wingmaster not an express) during my 15 yr layoff from hunting when I needed some extra cash ... but it was a clone of the higgins (and loosing that would be a bidder loss).

Browning, is there really any other brand!! lol

Upland/Clays: Beretta White Onyx 626 O/U 20 ga.
Waterfowl, Turkey, Deer: Mossberg 535 Pump 12 ga.
Wife's Clay Shooter: Beretta Urika UL391 Semi-Auto 20 ga.

what kind of list is this you don't have the no. 1 gun listed

oh i got it you know that BROWNING IS NO. ONE and the poll is for the rest

20 ga A-5 bought in 1969, cyl choke
bought a 20 Citori once in 1993, need three shots so traded even up for
12 ga Benelli super 90

CZ-USA Woodcock o/u 12 gauge

Remington 870 12 ga. and Mossberg 500 20 ga.

Mossberg Model 88 and a Model 500 both excellent shotguns, never have any missfeeds, or jams.

I've waited a long time for someone to point out how bogus this poll is. Marlin, Merkel, Miroku, Verona & Weatherby listed with no Browning, Beretta, Ruger & Ithaca. This poll was either obviously slanted from the start or the pollster didn't know a tinkers **** about the other popular brands. Everyone knows why the "other" category is so large. :roll:

Ruger Red Label 20 gauge
Mossberg 500 12 gauge
Huglu 601 Sport in 12 gauge

Just recently picked up my first shotgun, a benelli nova 12g

I have a Browning Citori and a new CZ Redhead. At this point, I am a little pissed I spent so much for the Citori but it sure looks good. If the CZ holds up over the next 12 months I will get a SXS in a 28 gauge.

Browning Citori Plus 12g Overunder

First gun I ever purchased myself as a 6th grader because my "daddy" had the same thing. Will take a lot for me to fall for another gun as I love it.

My husband has too many to list. lol :roll:

My trusty SKB under and over 20 gauge. Other than that, partial to Beretta and Browning

Stevens/Savage 12 ga. Just learning so we don't need much and it won't bother us to get scratched.

Carla

I have a 12 and 20 ga Stoeger sxs. Not the prettiest guns ever made but when you pull the trigger they go boom every time. For the price you don't worry about laying them down in a wet field or the back of a pickup !

Mostly shoot a stevens 311 in 20 that is choked too tight and weighs too much but it gets the job done. I am in the market for a lighter double gun so we will see what I end up with. I actually shot 20 on a round of skeet with it last Wed and was pretty happy.

I also have an 870 for waterfowl and rainy nasty days in the field

I voted winchester cause I put about 1.5-2 cases of duck and goose loads through my SX3 a year waterfowl hunting, and probly another 2 cases of dove loads, but my go to for "birds" is a baikal O/U 20ga.
Jim

Browning!

Stoeger

20 Gauge Charles Daly Semi-Auto

28 Gauge Browning BPS

Both great guns

I never pay much attention to brand but I have and use a Browning, Remington, Winchester, Ted Williams, And an Italian made gun that I never remember who made it.

Ezzy

I own way too many guns....Like many of you I'm sure there are a few I go back to most of the time. I have an old Savage 12ga. pump I bought in a pawn shop in the 1980's that I usually shoot for waterfowl. Ugly, but "bleep" I can shoot it. I have an Ithaca/SKB 12ga. autoloader also acquired in the 80's. It's my go to for rabbits and dove. As far as birds.....Franchi 48/al ultralight 20ga. Bought it new in the early 90's.

Grandpa Grouse carried an L.C. Smith double gun and so do I
