Get a pump you'll never have jamming issues. I find the semis get jammed easy especially around water when its cold out. A shotgun shell doesn't burn as well as a rifle round and that can cause a lot of problems if your shooting all day. I'm not a perfect shotgunner but my money is always with a pump. I like Winchester shotguns. My shotgun of choice is the old Winchester Mod. 97, but that's just me.

ok, i have a mossberg 935. walmart has one that you can get in camo, its the limited editon. its a semi auto. i think its a nice gun. but like kansasboy said, semi auto's tend to jam. if you keep the 935 clean it wont jam, atleast not as much. mine will jam about once every 20 shots. i love my 935, but im thinking about getting another gun but a pump. orrrr you could totally go old school and get a single shot 12 guage.... lol.

i gotta couple of semi autos that i use mainly during the cold and havent ever had a problem with them and the main one is a Browning, if i remembered the model i would tell you,but its the old made in belgium back at the turn of the 20th century, you just gotta keep them oiled and they work great...maybe when i get to my dad's where the browning is I'll get pics of it, my brother has the same looking Remington as the Browning so we may retire both of them guns soon
