A Prepper ish friend bought one and had nothing but trouble with it.

We messed around with it for an afternoon and it was very frustrating to see a new gun, that was expensive, simply function so poorly.

Friend was told that it needs a break in and after 500 rounds, it will function smoothly. Then he was told that light loads don't cycle well and he should use hunting loads only.

I have bought a Benelli SBE 2 new, and a Weatherby SA8 new, and both shot first time out of the box no problem. In very wet and muddy and freezing and challenging conditions, both continued to shoot and cycle.

I said to the friend that if it takes 500 rounds to get working properly that he should return it and simply buy a Benelli, a Stoeger, or the Weatherby SA8 and be done with it.

However, my choices are not COOL and do not look TOUGH. Thy just work properly, that's all.

If you are really worried about the Zombie Apocalypse, just get something practical that can work. Even a Mossberg 500 A is a better choice.
