Thread: Pump vs Semi auto

A 26" or less barrel makes it easier to use when you need to get in and out of a vehicle. But a 20" barrel is often too short for some guys to shoot well. Go to a reputable gunshop and ask to try various ones out for fit and swing etc. Then see if you can find a mate that has one that you can try first.

Concur, I've had a Gun City 18" for the past 10 years. What makes them so damn heavy in comparison?
