Not too many my friend in what I call the average joe guns if they were a pump or semi for sure so most would be good for Trap in the 12ga versions
I never got deep into the O/U except the K ones when I was trying to break them all years ago and those I have sold off. SXS is the other one I do not collect other than my grandfathers model 21's .As a kid in my dad's shop the new product brochures would show up and most years I would start saving for the next model out
I pretty much did that until 13 years ago when I started the old cancer battle and almost stopped buying guns or became very selective and started to down size but thank God so far I am winning that battle and stopped reducing the herd . I love the 28ga and 16ga and have an easy 50 many makes and models between them alone. I think 33 or 34 in 28ga if I count the single shot ones
I will leave it at that since I could ramble about shotguns for pages and pages
Cheers

They are very easy to fix, in fact once you get familiar with them you can do it with your eyes closed. Plus the fix is not normally anything serious that cannot be back up and running in less than 10 minutes

That confirms then you have a good varied collection. The vast majority of my shooting was with a shotgun, thus my main interest, knowledge and reloading skills were centred around them. Owned more OU's than other action types. My original 1974 SX-1 is still my main man, had choke tubes installed in it years ago for versatility. Also made a slug barrel for it out of a 30" barrel in the early 80's for the local deer hunt. Pleased to hear your being successful in staying on the top side of the grass as we would hate to loose your charm and wit. Stay well young fella.
Don't just go up and ask to try. Wait for a quiet time and pick a shooter that shoots one well and ask why he shoots a semi. If you don't just jump in there, many will offer their semi for a trial. Use your own ammo and not reloads.
