I've been recently looking into purchasing a new auto loader and have narrowed it down to these two, basically due to the inertia system and the over all feel of the gun. I know that they are almost identical but is the 3.5 inch shell capability worth the extra money. For me it would only be 30 dollars more due to a discount I get through employment. Also any one use either of these guns would love to hear from owners.

I've never used either unfortunately but i've heard great things about both. Spend the $30 for the 3.5"! You'll always have the choice of shooting those shells if you want too one day. If you go with 3" then thats what you're stuck with.

      By 845hunter
      Recently I picked up duck hunting I was  curious  about public hunting lands  near Rockland and orange county’s.  I know of sterling, Stewart, the Bashakill and  the Hudson River. My question is where can I hunt on the Hudson and are they any other areas I can hunt? Not looking to take spots I know how it is about hunting spots

      Looking for LI Hunting Info/Hunters
      By brendanw66
      Hello all,
      My buddy and I are midshipmen at the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy in Kings Point, Long Island.  We're both avid duck hunters back home (Louisiana, Florida), but we would like to do some hunting this season up here in Long Island while we're at school. 
      We're looking for any information on good places to hunt on the island, we don't mind driving, or anyone that's willing to allow us to tag along for a hunt.  We have our licenses, guns, camo, and a few dozen decoys up here with us. 
      Heard Suffolk County runs some public land with duck blinds, anyone have experience with that?  Thanks for any information.

      Update to hunting with a rescue dog
      By Hookhunter20
      As some of you may remember I posted on here to get your opinion on adopting a rescue dog for waterfowl hunting. As expected I got mixed advice on the matter but decided to go for it anyway. She passed her gun shyness test, got her land retrieving down after that water and boat retrieving took less than a day each. Fast forward four months from the day I adopted her  and add in many hours spent training and the verdict is finally in. My girl is officially a hunter. This afternoon was the real world test and I'd say she passed with flying colors. She was a little jumpy and whiny between flights but nothing I didn't expect, it was after all her first hunt. About 30 minutes into the hunt we had a flock of 6 geese come in and give me a passing shot at about 40 yards, missed twice, had an IC in for decoying birds. Surprisingly they doubled back and came in to land and I folded one and sent the dog. I was a little worried how she'd handle a 15 lb flapping goose as her first bird but after getting wing slapped once she grabbed it and brought it back flawlessly. Couldn't be happier with her and goes to show a little commitment and work goes a long way and you don't always have to spend 1500 bucks on a pup for a hunting dog.

      Waterfowl hunting in Scoharie county?
      By Hookhunter20
      Was wondering if anyone on the forum hunts schoharie county and the surrounding areas? I live in Putnam but have 47 acres in middleburgh and soon hope to move up this way. the amount of geese I see flying over stand while deer hunting is sickening. That combined with my lack of downstate waterfowl spots for duck has led me to search for a few up this way. Any info would be appreciated, if anyone does duck hunt up in the region id be more than willing to tag along!
