Default Saiga 12 or banelli m4

Yeah the benelli is kinda pricy but I'll have a grand or more buying a saiga decking out a saiga how I want it. I'm primarily wanting this for defense and close pig hunting. Who has shot or owns these guns? I don't mind dropping coin for something that will last a good while and be trouble free.

I'd go with the m4. The saiga is cool but I've heard mixed reviews of them. the m4 is pretty bulletproof.

Yeah I've done some looking. Geting a Saiga speced out good with rails, light, laser, optics, stock, drums and clips I'm close to what an m4 would be. Can't find nothing bad about the m4 yet. Hopefully I can find some goodies for the m4 as well. Seems like a good track record may be the deciding factor.

I was going to buy a saiga, but once I bought the 12 round mag, those mags are to long, you'll never be able to shoot it prone. Also do you really trust RUSSIAN quailty I went ahead & bought two BRAND NEW BENELLI M1 SUPER 90.

The two negative thing about the BENELLI M-4 is the PRICE & the butt-stock is kind of long.
