I dunno, there are a lot of people who shoot single shots here in the midwest. (South Dakota) But most people use their Hunting shotguns.
When it comes to semi-autos I have only seen one I would ever buy. That was a 1950's era Belgium Browning a-5. Every other semi-auto needs to be cleaned about every half day if it sees any serious field time and harsh conditions.
I had a friend shooting a very nice and expensive Benelli auto loader. This was in December and we were walking road ditches for pheasants. As we kept getting in and out of the truck, the guns would get condensation on them. Well, we started walking and a rooster jumps up in front of us. He pulls up to shoot and guss what. His gun fired once and then wouldn't work. His gas chamber froze solid. (That just ment I got all the shooting back home...hehe) So I guess I'll just stick with my pump.
To whomever was asking if a pump was as fast as an auto-loader, if you practice enough, a pump can be faster. If you get really good, you can even beat the firing pin. Believe me, I saw that one first hand, it was insane.
