I'm one of those old-guys and like my Remington 870P and Tac-14; Mossberg 590A1; and Remington 11-87P (my only semiauto). I do wonder how a Benelli 1301's recoil would feel or if I'd be a bit faster between shots, but not enough right now to just go out and buy another shotgun.

All I'm saying is the Remington 11-87P might be another option and may be easier to find on the used market, although still available new. The semiauto competitors back when I bought were the Benelli M1 or M2; and Beretta 1201FP. As I remember, the Mossberg 9200A1 was ending production ~year 2000. The Benelli M4 was just then being selected and was both an unknown, expensive (still is), and not readily available at that time.
