I'm really torn between a Mossberg Maverick 88 and a Benelli Supernova. On one hand the supernova looks super slick, has much better reviews for ergonomics and performance, but it's also twice the price of the Maverick, which also has good reviews considering the price. This will be my first purchase.

I can afford the supernova, but I almost feel guilty spending that much.

Buy the supernova it will still be cycling rounds while the 88 is in pieces.
