Thinking of getting one. I'd like opinions from practical shooters that live on this forum.

Make a long story short, he could hardly bend it by the end of the day and was badly swollen. Talked to a few gun store owners and they all chimed in that was the major problem with the Vinci and is why they redesigned the Super Vinci to provide more space.
All stores recommended the SBE II or the M2.

Man i thought we have some goofy regs but that one might take the cake!

I have seen those comments.elsewhere also, but I suspect it may affect short-fingered folk of which I am not one. I won't know until i actually hold one. since I have no bad shotgunning habits I am less likely to have the minority problems such as this. that's my story and I *may* stick to it. everyone does rave on the M2, so I will definitely look at it also, stock willing these days.
But then if I do that, may as well have a hard look at Browning Silver and A5 as well.
