All I know is they are identical looking, but completely different guts. New one is gas driven, compared to old one being recoil driven. In my opinion, its hard to beat the ol' humpback.

New one is not gas driven, it's recoil driven by there kinematic drive system!

Yep you are correct. I love mine, upgraded from an old Rem 870 to this for trap and skeet this year. It is an absolute dream to shoot and I love the Invector DS choke system. Easy to take apart and clean too... In saying that I have over 400 rounds through mine so far and haven't cleaned it. Hasn't skipped a beat yet. Might be time though..

Short and sweet answer. I love it and can't wait to drop some birds with it.
