   Here’s a couple I’ve been eyeballing. The Stoeger Condor and Mossberg over under. I’ve been hesitating because I worry the quality might not be as good as a Ruger over under.

   $500 just isn’t going to cut it for a quality over/under.

   The best over and unders are made by the Japanese. Either the Browning Citori or the SKB. For about $900 you could by a used Browning or SKB in excellent condition.

   Save your money and buy quality.

   That CZ in Travis’s link seems like the best for $565. CZ makes good guns.
   Otherwise hit the gun shows and gun stores for used guns.
   I bought a used Winchester O/U skeet gun in 12 gauge for $800.

   I own a Baikal o/u and LOVE it! I shoot allot of trap (3000+ rounds a year) and I wouldn’t trade it for even a high-end Citori or Red Label.
