TriStar or Yildiz
 
Shot my buddy's semi auto Tristar the other day and loved it.
Been looking at the Yildiz over/under Aswell.
Just looking to buy another gun, both are $400 give or take.
Any experience with either?

I bought a tristar G2 a couple years ago for hardly nothing. Tristar had a bad rep then was bought out by benelli, Hence G2 (generation 2). It's a 20ga auto. No problems so far, has several cases through it shooting clays.

I bought a 12ga Yildiz O/U 3 years ago and I love the gun. If you are going to hunt ducks or geese I would probably go with the auto. For dove and quail, the Yildiz.

Recoil is not bad at all. My 9 year old son has been shooting his for 2 years, 2 3/4 high power shells. Gonna try some 3 inch steel for duck season this year.

I bought a Tristar a few years ago that didnt make it through a box of shells, I'm not tryin to hate on them I hope everybody else who has one has better luck than I did but I would go with the o/u

I have the Franchi affinity and had good results with it. i was having issues with the "Benelli click" but that was bc i couldnt keep from playing with the lever. bad habit of mine to fiddle around when nothing is in the air. Have shot 2 3/4 and 3" with no problems. Some will hate on them and say they are crap.
