I own both an 1187 and an 1100. Both are fabulous guns and are great for all around purposes. However, I also own a Beretta 391 which will run around $1000 new. It is a better made shotgun for sporting purposes in my opinion. I am a member of the ATA and I have shot in excess of 15,000 registered targets with mine, not to mention practice. On the other hand it is more expensive. You really can't beat an 1100 or 1187 for the price. If you do want to spend a little more go with a Beretta 391 or a Benelli.
