2 guns or 1 that does it all?

My 2 options are:

Option#1 Buy a used 1187 for sporting clays, doves, pheasants and rabbits. Shooting mostly lighter field loads with occasional high brass. Buy a new Mossberg 935 for Geese and ducks. Shooting mainly 31/2" mags with an occasional 3" mag at ducks.

Option #2 buy a new Winchester SX2 that does it all (or should) shot all loads from lighter 23/4" field loads the the big 31/2" mags.

I am leaning towards option #1 because it means 2 new guns instead of one. Also it seems sometimes when you try to get something to fit all your needs it never fits anyone of them really well. Also a two friends have had to send their SX2's back for minor repairs. I know anything mechanical can fail, and a small percentage always will, thats another reason the 2 gun option looks good, a back up gun.
