Default Canuck hunter shotgun reviews?

Hi fellas,
A few days ago i asked for advice on a shotgun. I got some good advice and started looking on the forum sales and on town post looking for a used beretta, benelli or franchi.
I didn’t find anything - but i DID find a Canuck hunter 12 gauge semi auto.

Does anyone have any input on this gun? It’s super cheap - which is always an attractive option - and seems like a good starting point. If goose and turkey hunting doesn’t do it for me, i don’t think I’d have an issue reselling it.

Ideas? Opinions?

New cheap auto loaders are usually worse then nothing. If budget is a concern buy a pump action as there is really not much that can go wrong with a pump. I shot a Mossberg 835 for years with zero issues.

In my opinion, you're better off with a good quality pump than a low quality semi auto..... I've seen guys with poor quality shotguns pile up during a hunt and they sit and watch and swear while the rest of us fill his limit for him. Stick with a proven design from a reputable brand and you can't go wrong.
