Remingtons new auto- SPR453

[Lunker]

Have been doing lots of looking for a new shotgun, preferably an auto, and I noticed Remington's got a new "affordable" autoloader, the SPR 453. Is this gun just on the market or has anybody purchased one yet? Just curious as to what it's like, and if it's worth a shot, no pun intended. I've been looking at guns from the beretta($750) down. I know there are a lot of nicer guns up the spectrum but being a college student and all...

I would recommend a used Beretta 390. Mine is well over 10,000 rounds and it is awesome.

It's very simuliar if not the same gun as the Baikal MP153.

Russian made fairly popular now with waterfowlers on a limited budget. For $120 more a guy could pick up the 3" 1187 sportsman. But if you want a inexpensive 3 1/2" autoloader it probably isn't a bad option.
