around here alot of people still use Stoegers, with prefrences for Single trigger models. But they realize that its going to breakdown after a couple years.
There has been a big push of Baikals though, especially once they're tuned by by say Johnny Meadows, and the parts support is far better.
Get a Stoeger and sell it five years from now for what you paid for it. By then, you'll have saved enough money, and improved enough, to get an SKB-Ithica, which is the best SASS shotgun available by a big margin over all the rest.

Yep, it's what I shoot.
Come on guy, the streets full of people puking drunk at ten o'clock in the morning, girls flashing their tits, what's not to like? --Jane

I used a Steven's 5200, chopped to 22" by the previous owner, that I bought for $ 120 worked great. Switched to a full choke 30" tubed original model 1887 from 1895 that I found at a.local auction for under $750. 2.5 inch shells, 4 in the magazine 1 on the elevator and 1 down the tube for 6 as fast as I can work the lever.
