I read so much about, "make sure the gun fits you properly" before you buy. What does that really mean? Don't get me wrong, a very bazaar sized and shaped gun is not what I'm talking about. My question is regarding the run of the mill average sized shotgun. I've been shooting steady for over 30 years and have owned more guns that I can even remember, and only a handful can I remember were uncomfortable to shoot well due to size, weight or whatever.

Do allot of you have a problem if the LOP is not the same on each gun, or the cast and dimensions may be different. I'm interested in your opinions on the subject...
