This question comes up a lot at the various shotgun forums on the Net. The quick answer is NO to the SA-3. You do not want to buy this gun. It has mechanical problems and service problems even though it looks great. It swings good too, but... After asking around at sites and pages loaded with wealthy scattergunners who really know their stuff the choice seems to be the Beretta 686. At the club where I shoot the vast majority of O/Us are Brownings. Weatherbys are good. And SKB seems to be the unrecognized quality gun.
So, are you looking for a first O/U?
