Literally millions of shotguns are safe and secure, and have digested billions of shells with single locking bolt systems. That should be enough for anyone capable of rational thought. Multiple locking bolts on shotguns are there because, as P.T. Barnum famously observed...

P.T. Barnum is long gone, but he has been replaced by other Hucksters and Show Men...

A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

As far as I know Merkle is the only newly made gun with a crossbolt. The crossbolt surely doesn't hurt, that is what Merkle is tooled up for so that is what they make. Why change now? Why do they have bolsters on their shotguns? No real need for them either. Why table lumps, (I think)? Monoblock is better, chopper lumps impress as well. I'm not dissing your Merkle, as I stated I would have one. I prefer upper end Japanese shotguns and some low end ones too! Oh and occasionally a "Woolnerized" 1100 20 Ga. classless pragmatist I!
