Problem? What problem? I still shoot my Dad's M31 matt rib gun as my primary duck gun, have a 31L 20 gauge as a wet weather grouse gun, a Browning Model 12 repop in 28 ga, a really swell 99.9% M42 factory vent rib and a 3 1/2" 870 plastic stocker which has to be the roughest, most inelegant gun I'll ever own, but when Bass Pro was selling them new for $199, I couldn't let it go.
