I bought a used brushed nickel model years ago and it was a fun gun and very sexy looking, no screw in chokes and a hard but plate. It was heavy and would rock you when firing both barrels but was a quality piece, kind of miss it from time to time but for the weight VS rounds I went ahead and sold it for a quality pump for home defense. Glad you are having as much fun with yours as I did with mine. How about a picture of yours?
