Buy recommendations M4 vs 1301
Both of these bad boys just went on sale and im thinking of giving up my Makasi pre order for one. Leaning towards the M4.
Help me decide.

I own both the M4 Pro and 1301 Tac, and I still find myself preferring the M4. Part of it is the proven track record adopted by the U.S. military and it’s built a reputation over many years.
Another thing I find interesting is how many companies are making M4 clones. Everyone seems to be trying to compete with the M4 design. On the other hand, I’ve only seen one or two 1301 clones.
Both are great shotguns, but if I had to keep just one, it would be the M4.
