If you get the semi, make sure it's 100% reliable with your selected ammo. Some of the specialty (short case or low recoil) shells may not work properly in a semi.

Make sure of the reliability by taking it out and making noise. Just because somebody on an internet forum says their 1100 worked fine with 'em doesn't mean yours will.
