was killing time this morning out at walmart, had to get some more golf balls, seems the local trees seem to eat them, and walked back to the gun rack to look at the ammo situation. allway look in the rack just to check prices and such, ask the boy behind the counter if he had any 28 gauges, as I saw a few over and unders, he said yeah the one on bottom.  it was a semi auto 28 ga hatfield and the price was $226.00. I ask if that was right or if the shotgun was in the wrong place, he scanned it and it was $226.  I looked it over and it seemed to feel fine for a cheap shotgun, I know it isn't a Bennelli, or Browning but for a little over $200 what can you expect.  I told him I would be back as I had to take my grandson to the dentist and needed to pick him up at school.

  Only been couple hours and when I dropped grandson back off went back out to get better look at it. It was gone, seems the guy behind me had heard me talking about the 28ga with the boy behind the counter and he bought it, it was last one and he is not sure when they will get more, as it has been january or febuary since they had one.  should have just bought it and let him run the check/paperwork while I went to the dentist with grandson and came back got it later, just never figured anyone else would be interested, I wasn't looking for a skeet/trap gun to shoot thousands of rounds a year, probubly only dozen or so rounds while squirrell hunting or target practicing with kids and wife. seems the reviews are all for the 12 ga and are hit or miss with jamming issues and forearm splits, haven't seen a 28ga review, guess next time won't wait.
