I like most types of shotguns and among them prefer some more than others. I prefer "nice" (my preference) SXSs over them all, except I hold a special fondness for my late Dad's Ithaca 37 20ga pump, the gun I'll probably own last if I ever start planning for the future with earnest. The question of why we like a particular gun or type, can for all of us I am sure, be answered to our own satisfaction with only a short pause for thought. Why someone must (really) dislike anyone else's shotgun - well for that answer they may need a psychiatrist.
