Quality over quantity like the others have said.

Take it easy and think about what your intended purpose for each type of firearm will be. That will influence your decisions.

I personally wanted to get into 3gun so I choose the Beretta 1301 for reliability and aftermarket support - can’t go wrong with an Italian classic!

If you’re mainly shooting at the range then weight will be less of a factor, but if you are out in crown land or hunting, that’s something to consider.
