Thanks guys for the reply. I am really trying to figure the Benelli loading port width and ejector system compared to the 391. After taking 391s on three trips to Argentina, I really do not want to do that again, just because of the cleaning regiment, twice per day with a trigger group removal at night. The last three times to AR I have gone with two O/U guns and they are definately a lot more pleasurable to clean, snake 2x per bore and a spot of greese on the hinge, done. Pass the cool libation please.... Two hours later the 391 scrubber staggers in, muck to the elbows.
I might just have to carry my 525 Browning 20ga 32 inch gun and my two barrel 20ga 391 gold sporting gun next year. At 500 - 600 rounds per day for pigeons the 391 should only require cleaning once per day. If I have a problem, the 391 stays in the sack and the 525 gets the bulk of use.
The real problem is the volume of shooting and the quality of shells you might run into. If you get some bad powder, you do not want an auto gun at all.
In the mean time I have gone on the net and found some not so good reviews on the Cordoba, several folks said they had jamming problems shooting in the US....that ain't good.
