DefaultSpring-Action or Pump-Action

I would like to know, if you guys prefer a Spring-Action Shotgun or a Pump-Action Shotgun. For my own i can't handle with this problem, i even can't say where the difference is. In that case, i'm completely ignorantly.

Are you asking about a pump-action versus a semi-auto? Why is this a problem?

Pump-actions tend to be far less expensive and may afford you more opportunities to change accessories depending on where you live.

Semi-autos, like a Remington 1100, are very nice. Personally, I prefer a semi-auto.

I much prefer pumps because there is no gas system to foul.
