FYI, In the Cabela's sales flyer I got yesterday they show the CZ-USA Teal Over & Under on sale Friday only for $549

I don't know anything about there shotguns let alone their over and unders but I've heard good things about them and that seems like a pretty good deal if they're any good.

Well I just purchased my first O/U and I wanted a long barrel and not break the bank.
I bought a Stoeger Condor Longfowler. Came with a set of flush chokes and extended chokes.

I did return it to the factory after four shots it would no longer open.

Stoeger sent me another brand new gun. And I have had no further issues. But I only have about 50 rounds through it so far.
It is not light. But not so heavy I could not carry it around all day.
Comes with a five year warranty.

Stoeger and Beretta merged I think.

Using for ducks right now and turkey in the spring.

ix gus in deer camp shoulder it and all liked the fit.
The three are Benelli, Stoeger and Franchi. The Stoeger is not a bad gun for the price, they are a little heavy. I do shoot one in the  Longfowler SXS for ducks and geese just for fun. For after market chokes you can use the Browning/Winchester Invector tubes.

For longevity and no hassle reliability go with a Browning, 25 years ago I bought one used that had 2 boxes of shells through it. I bought that gun from Ron Kesselring, he told me that my great grandsons would be shooting it someday. I believe he was right I have over 500k shots down the pipes on it and the lever is still to the right of center. Grease the hinge surfaces everytime and don't slam it shUT or drop open. Mine has never been taken apart for an internal cleaning either. Fantastic weapon from the most brilliant firearm inventor IMO.  I have a superposed,Citori,Rizzini,CZ, Winchester 101 3 sub guage skeet set and a brand new Fausti that has 6 boxes of shells through it that needs a mechanical repair allready, it was won at a DU banquet on 60 bucks of tickets.The Rizzini and CZ both have needed repairs. Great deals can be found on used fixed choke guns, IC/mod is a common pairing. I've seen dozens of rarely used citoris in the used section for 800 bucks, a 35 year old citori with fixed chokes is 10 times the gun any new ones made in that price point.

Haven't fired it, but really like the feel of the Instinct SL (though I want the 20ga myself).
