I got bit hard by the semi-auto shotgun bug...and I've never really been a fan. The 1301 changed all that but my wife pretty much laid claim to that one. So, I sold her AK and just ordered a grey A300 Patrol. Thought about another 1301 but I really want to try out the A300. Should be at my dealer's place Monday. Got a couple of Blue Force Vickers slings to go with 'em. And a few cases of good ammo. Solid tradeoff for an AK we never shoot.
