Gun peoples: first shotgun.

Another vote for the Benelli Nova. I got mine 3 years ago mainly for waterfowl hunting. Barrels are very easy to interchange. All you do is unscrew the cap at the end of the magazine and slide it off. I've never had it jam on me, shortstroke it, or anything like that. My dad and brother both had mossbergs before me. My bro is tall with long arms and still short strokes it when pumping the next shell fairly often. My dad sold his gun about a year after I got mine and went with the top of the line benelli hunting gun and has never looked back. Also, benellis are the best balanced shotguns I have used. Comes up to your shoulder very naturally so you can get your eye down the sights the fastest.

I have used Mossbergs, Remingtons, and Benellis. I have no experience with Browning, but have heard great things also.
