U say that, but spend the extra $100 and get a camo. U wont regret it. Last 2 guns I bought were camo. Wherever that camo is, it will not rust. Hunting in the marsh, I would never bring a brand new synthetic or blued gun out there. The barrel would rust before u got it out the case!

I have a Benelli M1 and an SBE II. I have had the M1 for about 10 years and the SBE II for about 4 years. I will never buy anything else. Only con to a Benelli compared to a gas-operated gun is that you gotta keep it reasonably clean. I guess with the inertia operation, all the working parts need to stay as free of debris/trash as possible. I usually clean mine about every 5-6 hunts and have no problems. My buddy has an SBE II and never cleans it, and he never has issues. I just make sure to clean mine every so often b/c it will start hanging on u. Beretta/Remington/Brownings u could go a whole season without cleaning it and probably won't have any issues.

In the marsh, your gun takes in alot of debris/marsh grass/etc. That's how I know when mine is due for a cleaning. You can open it up and see all the trash in it.
