I do everything I can to avoid chinese crap, and I mean EVERYTHING. That being said, I have a grizzly and I love it. It is short, cheap, and heavy. I like the weight, as even with the short barrel it handles heavy loads well. I can let it bounce around in any vehicle and don't cry when it gets scratched and dented. I have an 18" mossberg and I prefer the grizz over it.
hope this helps
