Abstract
The authors of this paper conducted a 500 round stress test to determine if either of two semiautomatic
shotguns, an FNH SLP Mk. I or a Mossberg 930 SPX, would experience mechanical
difficulties in order to determine if one was better suited for 3-gun competitions. Testing was
conducted using one lightly used shotgun (<200 rounds) of each model which then fired 500
rounds in under 4 hours using two different ammunition types commonly found in stores and
rotating through 6 shooters to ensure operator error was controlled for. Data was collected
during the testing which was later analyzed, showing that the FNH SLP Mk. I malfunctioned an
average of 5 times for every 25 rounds while the Mossberg 930 SPX’s malfunctions were not
statistically significant. Based on this and other data this report concludes that the Mossberg
930 SPX is a superior semi-automatic shotgun for 3-gun competitions.
