Looking at getting one of these from Gander Mtn for 229? Is this a good price/good gun and also how easily can one find chokes or it? Thanks for any info guys.

I was looking hard at getting one of these in a 20ga,but they weight more than a boat anchor,they weight the same as the 12ga which is heavy

that is true but with the extra weight it has virtually no kick with the hevi 6's, which is just what my wife needed :jesus-cross:

What other shells would y'all reccomend bc with the recent pricehike on hevi I won't be buying them unless academy hasn't went up yet.

O so you had to be that guy lmao They were completely out of 6s yesterday as was gander mtn. No one in knox had a tightwad choke or a choke to fit it except for gander mtn had a undertaker that was for this gun but it was messed up from factory and would not thread into the barrel. Only one they had so Im awaiting my choke to pattern this gun. Thanks for the tips and advice on this gun. Got less then 300 in the whole set up including shells and all cant beat that at all.
