Ruger Red Label O/U

I have never missed a bird because I forgot to take the auto safety off. You get used to it being on and pushing it off becomes second nature, like cocking the hammer on an old timey single shot before shooting it.
Auto safety is really no big deal to me.
 
I have had a Red Label 12 gauge since 1998, and have a mixed review.

Cons:
*The metal to wood fit is not as good as a Beretta, Browning, etc.
*I had to send it back to the factory because the safety worked loose and the gun would go from 'safe' to 'fire' by itself as I walked in the field
* The spacer between the barrels is coming loose, and not many rounds have gone through this gun

Pros:
*It fits my build and handles well
*I like that the action opens easily, by design
*It was priced well below its competition - Beretta and Browning
*It has never failed to fire for me
*Ruger's customer service was great when I sent it back to the factory
*It has served me well in the field and has dropped many a pheasant
 
*I had to send it back to the factory because the safety worked loose and the gun would go from 'safe' to 'fire' by itself as I walked in the field
* The spacer between the barrels is coming loose, and not many rounds have gone through this gun

What happens when many have gone through it?
