Thank you, gentlemen, for your replies. I do like the Gamba from my basic inspection of the gun and it is being offered at a very good price by the old timer who is selling it and the two Superposeds. Unfortunately the two Superposeds come as a set though it may be possible to find someone to buy one of the two and to keep the other one.

DT,

I didn't have a semi auto before I moved to the US and I wasn't sure I would like the A-5 but having shot it more than a little, I really love mine. I briefly had a Remington 1100 but I did not like it as much though it performed flawlessly. The reason for going for the 3 barrel set on the A-5 would be that I live in a shotgun and muzzleloader only state, and, even across the border in Wisconsin or Indiana I would be restricted to this choice only.

I hope to decide soon - tax filing dates are coming closer and that makes the whole cold turkey process even more agonising!

Hope to post the results and pictures of what I buy very soon,

Good hunting everyone!
