its like this, for those of us who go all season in the mud rain, snow and water and subzero temps all day, although we may want to that gun doesnt all get rushed home and cleaned, my 390 is lucky to see 3 good take aparts in a year and only hiccupped once in 6 years (last year) easy to take apart few peices most importantly when i point it the honkers fall! AL390 silver mallard, paid half what the benelli folks did
