I have always shot Beretta and I love them. My dad just picked up the Fabarms XLR5 and it really throws up nice. I haven't shot it yet but it feels like a pretty sweet gun.

Benelli SBEII still rules the duck blind from what I can tell. Just a solid, simple, badass shotgun.

SBEII, Super Vinci, A400.

SBE2, going on 10 years.

Hard to argue against the SBE2
Only drawback is it cost, but well worth the extra money.

This will be the 10th year I've had my SBEII. I know there are other equally good or even better shotguns but I like that it's inertia driven as opposed to gas. It's so comfortable in my hands that I don't want to shoot anything else.

A5. Come Hell or High Water

SBE2 is all you need to know

I shot the same SBE for 20 years. Bought a Super Vinci and appreciate how easy it is to break down and clean. Love it.

It's either the SBE II if you are a Benelli homer or a Beretta A400 if you lean that way. I like my Super Vinci and it gets an honerable mention but it's ugly as frick and usually stays at home in favor of my Beretta.

Browning maxis or A5

Love my SX3. Wouldn't trade it for anything. Never had an issue. All it does is shoot!

Fwiw my father and i are both lefties so our only option is benelli. My dad bought a SBE in the first few years of production 18 years ago. When I was old enough to start hunting he bought an SBE2 and handed the older to me. That gun has been hunted hard for 18 years and there isn't a spot of rust and runs flawlessly. Only thing we have done is change out the springs twice as Maintenence.

I got an Extrema 2 nine years ago and it has never jammed. Never gave me any problems. A400 are just as good from what I hear. My dad swears by his SBE2. He had to have it sent off twice when he first got it for problems but since has been fine. I like a longer stock he likes the shorter stock. My beretta kicks much less as well. Both will perform equally, just pick up both and see which one you like. I have heard great things about the Winchester SX3. I'd hold all 3 and go with which one is most comfortable for you. You wont be disappointed with any.

All depends on what gun fits you. Sometimes you can shoot a M2 and not a A400, or a SX3 may fit you better. Try to shoot them all and see what you can naturally hit more targets with.
I shot an over and under at ducks for years and don't think they stack up. Unless you are hunting a big comfy blinds with lots of hunters where that 3rd shell doesn't matter. I also would not get hung up on the 3.5" gun unless you are a big goose hunter.

I have a Beretta AL391 that has had thousands and thousands of rounds down the tube and has never malfunctioned. I recently bought an A400 Unico and it has performed flawlessly. Also have a 682 Gold E and have never had a problem with it either. In other words just get a Beretta and don't worry about anything else.
