I had one NIB that I bought from a couple that bought it for home protection.
Then decided they didn't want gun in the house with kids. I didn't shoot it but
it looked and felt junky to me. I think they were made in Turkey and I have seen
same gun under another label but forget the name. Definitely 3rd rate stuff. I
think it was bought off net for $129.

I just bought the Walmart O/U---pretty nice for the $363 I paid for it----sure its no Beretta or Browning---but it was also $363 vs $2000.

Haven't shot it yet but I'm sure it will be just fine for my purpose of hunting with it---plus that its cheap enough I won't be worried about dinging it up in the field.

Came with 5 choke tubes and a 5 year warranty.

I have a 28ga. O/U TriStar. Just had a whim one day for a 28, and have never owned a O/U. Cool little shotgun. Fun to shoot, accurate, and has held up well. The fit and finish is decent. High dollar "status symbols" aren't my thing. If something like this TriStar does what I want it to, that's not only good enough for me, it's perfect.
I am happy enough with TriStar that I will soon be buying one of their P120 CZ 75 SP01 clones.
