[QUOTE="aeviaanah, post: 265243, member: 6493"] Ill be sure to run the numbers before I commit to buying. Thanks alot! I checked out the website but the format isnt too user friendly if you know what I mean. I may stop by a dealer and ask a few questions prior to any commitments. May I ask why a pump for the first shotgun? I checked out the two models you suggested...they look like decent entry level guns. Not sure what I plan with this gun, originally i wanted one for home defense. After shooting trap the other day I enjoyed myself so I may do a bit of that. Ive never had a hunting license so I may do that as well. Thanks for the link gunbroker.com good source to check price range and stuff. First id use it to feel a bit safer at night, home defense. Ill be using it to shoot trap and possibly for hunting. I think the gun is designed for small game right? It is a 12ga. When i say good shape that is just the overall look of it, what else should I be looking at to determine it is truly in good shape? Good to hear you have one and would buy one. This particular 311 has a 30" barrel. Not sure the choke on them, possibly you can help me figure it out. I used a micrometer on the inside of the barrel both beginning and end and I dont remember the reading but both sides measured the same. Also, a dime fit in both left and right barrels. Havent got that far! Why do you ask? [/QUOTE]
