Chiappa 1887 lever action shotgun - Fast load

[u/Ok-Programmer-2199]

Just wondering if anyone owns this gun and has any insight on how well it works? I'm a huge lever action guy, but I also hunt Waterfowl so I was thinking of picking up the 2 shell - fast load option for this season. I'm aware it's far less practical than my over/under, but I still feel a pull towards this shotgun. Most of the stuff I've seen online is from different brands, so I figured I'd ask here.

I'm deciding between this or a Henry homesteader, for another range gun.

Any feedback on how well it feeds and performs would be appreciated!

Waterfowl guns need to take a beating. They will get mud and grit everywhere inside. Need to factor that into whether a lever action is up to that.
