Not bad, it is a shotgun though lol
I like that.
My Maverick 88 has several hundred rounds through it from 7-8 shot (500+) for clays to 00buck (200+) for SD reliability/familiarization/patterning to slugs (car shoots/just cuz). All of the various rounds were shot out of a factory 18.25" barrel, some with the factory stock, some with an ATI pistol grip, some with a folding stock.
Never had a fail to feed/fire/eject. Not once. Aside from the barrel (it came with a 22" I believe) and the stock/grip it is 100% original and has never had a part replaced for wear or failure. I think I cleaned it once.
I once thought I needed a Semi-auto. Bought a Charles Daly cuz reviews and "reputation". Epic POS. Wouldn't feed, cycle, eject at all reliably. Tried all the usual ammo types, assorted manufacturers, different velocities. The thing was like the Sig Mosquito of shotguns. Trafrd it at Blue Northern for my "wedding shotguns".
Racking a pump is almost as instinctual as pissing on a tree in the woods. Similar grip also...

IMO available aftermarket accessories and parts. Customer support and warranty is also very Important. I’m willing to pay more for a brand name like Mossberg, Beretta, Franchi..ect, than a no name brand and be shit out of luck if something breaks.

I took the new $250 tactical shotty to the range.
It didn't go well. I shot 44 rounds of Winchester AA no 8 shot thru it will no issues. Shot 45, BANG. It looks like something happened with the choke tube that caused the failure.
