Intersted in O/U shotgun

[Bib]

I have a Stoeger Condor that I bought at Dick's about five years ago and I got it with a set of 20ga and a set of 12 ga barrells. I basicly got 2 guns for under $400.00. Is it pretty: no. Is it rugged and reliable: yes. Is it a tad on the heavy side: yes. Does it shoot where I point and kill birds or clays: yes. I have had Citoris, Berettas and a bunch of side by sides. That Stoeger is workhorse and if you don't mind a little weight (which may actually be an advantage if you shoot clays) they are the best for the money.
And it will be a brand new gun.

+1 I paid around $450 for my combo set quite a few years ago. I've put thousands of rounds through it on skeet and 5-stand and it's still as tight as when it was new.

fwiw

Most people who shoot the Ruger Red Label will find that these guns fit very few people and will kick the crap outta ya. Over the course of a few years when I was competing in International Skeet I put over 200,000 hot 12ga loads through a Browning Citori with no issues. My money is on the Citori.

Check with Jaquae's (?) in Ohio they get a bunch of o/u's through.

I can honestly say that having owned Citoris, Berettas and Red Labels I'll put my money on a Red Label ANY day. Have never experienced any worse recoil from the Ruger over the others. Try to shoot one of each...then YOU decide.
