beretta
Urika 2 is what I shoot. Love it and dont have any complaints other than it is slighly dificult to disaaemble and reasseble. Which is not a big issue at all seeing that is kind of expected out of a newer automtic.
Shot it for an entire year before I cleaned it and it never once jammed.
I personally dont need 3.5's and will shoot pretty much anything with 3's(duck, geese, hog, turkey etc.). But I can understand wanting the 3.5 just for extra comfort.
The Vinci is a great gun too. I you want to spend the extra money for it I wouldnt hate on you for that at all.
Also, where i'm at, we have a Bass Pro, Academy, Dicks Sporting Goods and local gun shops. I shoped around a lot and found the best prices at Dicks.

Thanks for the comment and my brother has a older beretta extreme that he has for 12 years and he cleaned it 5 times and it has never jammed but that maxus is so light !!!

get the beretta, but get tthe XPLOR, my only reason not to go ahead and get the 3 1/2, would be weight of gun, but the 3 1/2 xplor is so light it is not a concern (6.6 lbs) so you will have it if ever needs to be

What are you hunting?

I shoot a Benelli Super Black Eagle, but all of those guns are good guns that you have picked out. As far as 3 or 3 1/2, I can't see any possible reason to not go ahead and get the 3 1/2. Honestly, I don't know why they would even make a 12 gauge anymore that isn't capable of shooting a 3 1/2 inch shell...

It is definitely worth having even if you don't shoot 3 1/2 often. Get it. And when it comes down to guns like these, it is whichever you are most comfortable with. Go feel them all out, throw em up a few times and see which you are most comfortable with. Half of my family swears by Benelli (which is my preference also) and the other half swears by the Beretta. You can't go wrong with a browning product either. just my .02 good luck

I agree. A top of the line gun is going to do fine no matter what. It's just splitting hairs trying to say which one is better. All of the guns the OP has picked out are good, just get the 3 1/2. Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it...

Exactly.

870 super mag. Oh wait maybe the M887 to. will last you forever and you may only have to clean it once every 10 years as long as you dont get the 870 wet or muddy.

Have had one for several years and had no problems at all. I clean mine once a year and never had it jam even with the lighest dove loads to the heaviest turkey loads. Great gun all around. The best part about it is the only part that will rust is the choke tube.
