You could fire many more shots without the gun tying up than the Remington. The Remington as WB says, is easier to get accuracy with. In close quarters combat that is not an issue. Reliability is.

My hunting loads from my Remington copy ran over 1000 fps. I could get over 1100 fps but much past that, the pressures blew the hammer back .....

Great gun for Javelina and deer if you knew your distances and your own limitations.
