No, they're not junk ...but they're slow on follow up shots. Some models can be very hard to find parts ...but you're only investing $ 50 - $100 in a gun anyway...
I have a gun, that I got in the 50's ...its a Western Field ( sold by Gambles or Montgomery Wards I think ), 3 shot, bolt action..( holds 2 in the mag / 1 in chamber )....mine is 16ga with a Full choke.
As a kid, I killed a lot of grouse with it..../ got it for a birthday present when I was about 8 yrs old, it was used then, and I still have it. I don't shoot it much --- but I went out and shot some skeet with it, just for laughs last summer, and I did ok with it ...( about an 15 average ).../ but working the bolt action, takes some concentration on doubles.../ and a Full Choke is not your best option on Skeet....but it was a good day !
