Yesterday, I went to three Wal Marts and finally found the gun. Like you all I went through every Forum and Post that Google and Yahoo could give me.I'll make a long story short, If you have the chance and the money get the Beretta over the Rem, Franchi, Charles D., you will never regret it!You see I had an inside trac, my dad works at Beretta.I'm a strong supporter of the product as over the years I've seen and heard many good things about their products.Plus I live 4 miles from the plan in Maryland.P.S. The Rem is a good gun also, but for the same price get the UL390. In my opinion you won't ever need 3-1'2 shells, with the new shells out in 2-3/4 and 3.0]
