Got to try the composite one on a round of skeet.

It fit me and the cycling was lightning fast. The rib is improved over the SX2, which was too high for a field gun in my opinion.

I'd buy one for waterfowl.

Thanks for the input.
A group of us go down to Nicaragua each fall for a duck and dove hunt. My first model Super X is great but tends to eat springs.

I've owned one since spring. It's an amazing gun. I use it for skeet and sporting clays, and will be my goose/duck gun. I've installed
a Briley light modified choke.

It comes with spacers to adjust length of pull, cast off, drop at comb. The gas system is extremely easy to clean, easy to disassemble. I do find it heavier than other semis but I am OK with that when shooting 3.5" shells.

I'm almost finished my 10th case of shells and no malfunctions at all. The only rounds it didn't cycle well were the Winchester Super Targets. They are suppose to be 2 3/4 dram but the action barely has enough gas to remove the empty. I use the Federal Top Gun #8's and never had a problem. There is no noticeable recoil with target loads. After 2 rounds of skeet and 100 sporting clays you would never know you shot it.

I highly recommend it and the price is good as well compared to Beretta and Benelli!

I forgot to mention, they are made in Belgium, along with the Brownings. They are clones to each other, and what I'm told the parts for the activ gas system are interchangeable between it and the brownings.
