Impulse buy from a total shotgun newbie. It was 199 at my favorite gun store and I bought it because I was going trap shooting with my grandpa. Did I do okay? Any issues with this model? I usually research first, but I liked the feel of this one. I was also wondering if anyone knows a way to remove the bit of wood that makes it only accept 3 shells. I think it can accept five? Not that I imagine any senario where I would need more than 3, but I was going to use it for home defense as well...and 5 trumps 3.
