I know how most of you guys who hang out in the shotgun forum love your pump guns. But honestly on days like today I just don't see it.
I brought out the Remington 11/87 HD shot gun for a little practice today. It has been a couple of weeks and the gun needed some exercise.
I set 14 clays out at ranges of 20-50 yards and loaded up the magazine with slugs. In less than seven seconds I fired seven slugs hit seven clays. Reload, repeat. No jams, no issues, slug straight to target.
I have heard of people who can do this with a pump but I never have been able to. I simply can't cycle the round and aim as fast with the pump. But I sure have an affection with the semi-auto.
Is there some kind of trick to it with a pump? What am I missing? Why would one prefer a pump to SA for HD? Mine has always been 100% reliable as well.
