Semi Auto Shotgun?
If you had $1500.00 to buy a semi auto shotgun what would you buy?

Most importantly, I would buy one that fits me. At $1500 max, I would try the SX-4, and the Maxus.

The SX4 is a good gun, but I think the sx3 is a bit better. I think they cheapened up the 4. I’ve shot the 4 and it’s pretty nice. But I found a smokin deal on a Maxus and man, you can’t beat it. I also own an A5, and it’s a bit more enjoyable to shoot.
I also think the weatherby semi are pretty good guns as I’ve had lots of luck with mine

It doesn’t come in at $1500 but I wouldn’t count out the Remington V3 either. I like it and thing it works better than the Weatherby SA08’s because of the gas valve set up, not having to swap them out on the V3.
Of course fit comes in to play and should be the number one concern. If it doesn’t fit you, they’re all junk. But it could be the $500 pump that fits the best and you will shoot better with it because of that.

$1500 will likely get you a used Benelli SBE2 or Beretta A400 in addition to those good choices already mentioned.

Anyone know why the SX4 is cheaper to buy that the SX3? Isn't the SX4 a upgrade to the SX3 but the SX4 is a lot cheaper.

Search Randy Wakeman's review of the SX-4.
He is quite critical of the downgrade from the SX-3.

Cabelas had a sale on stoeger m3500 that I just missed out on. Camo for the same price as the black one.

Interesting, I have never seen you miss with an 100 or an 870 Yvan- but then I have never seen you shoot a shotgun!!
