I choose by fit plus handling and not by name or country of origin. My field gun happens to be 12ga 6lb4oz Thuringian piece with 28" tubes and 70mm chambers, but Made in CCCP MC-7 or Italian PB 'S' series gun would do just as nicely. The common denaminator seems to be long, "lean" fixed choke barrels.
If I run across minty #4 for 1,700+/-100 USD I might buy it.
