The Edison is a great way to get an entry level open horn machine!

I think it depends on what you are packing.....

If I had a pump action handy with a selection of birdshot size 9 I'd definitely go for the Edison as 1 shot from 30 yards would easily reduce it half-inch pieces.

The victrola really is to be used if you'r going for practice and really need a satisfying target to empty your Glock magazine.
