Jagermeister if you think a semi auto .410 is better than a 42 .410 pump gun you are most likely on the wrong site. It is not about speed to a limit but the process. Just pulling the trigger on a semi auto, as fast as you can, to take birds is not hunting. Until you figure that out keep trying those 1100's. Perhaps you like a little powder blown back into your face. I give them a pass but will pass on using one in the field.
I used 1100's for over thirty years for clay targets, from 1965-2000, including 11/87s, and long ago learned their limitations and their flaws. In small bore we use to keep two on hand to keep just one running while the other was waiting for repair or waiting to make it function properly. I ran a hundred straight in Skeet and had to borrow a third gun to finish using factory shells. Each gauge was accompanied by a tackle box of parts and trigger groups to make ready repairs possible at shoots. Feed latches, extractor, firing pins, o rings, action springs, action bars, you name it I've replace them.
I own a Winchester Model 12, which is just like the 42 which has had zero parts replaced in over six decades of use. Between my father and myself it has had several pickup load of shells shot in it and zero parts replaced. No 1100 ever made can say the same.
