It depends on what direction you are going. Is this the start of a double gun collection or?
If it is then every dollar you pump into this Nitro Special you've lost to buy another because you cannot get your money back out of it. I pumped money into mine because I knew I was just going to use and hunt with this one so I didn't care how much I spent keeping this one going. Its also a sweet sixteen Nitro Special weighing in at slightly over 6 pounds.
And in this day and age you have to think about the logistics of the sixteen gauge, they ain't good. If you are only going to hunt close to home then you're fine, if not, you have to have a plan.
Here's mine. Giving me good service over most of my life.
