Pykie Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 I have a 28 gauge Armsan Cre8, fantastic semi auto, not cartridge fussy at all and has cycled from 16-28 gram cartridges. Never had a jam yet either and mine shoots even when dirty. For the money, I'm totally pleased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnphilip Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 The wife has a armsan 612s she loves it, it likes 70mm cartridges. I have a franchi afinity now i realy love this gun it feels amazing to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Full Pelt Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Very good Benelli copies, 12s, 20s and 28s, and lots of choice. 20s here : http://www.armsan.com/products/a620/52/20-gauge-semi-auto.html Armsan also manufacture for Weatherby ; the Weatherby SA08 (a Beretta copy) is well reviewed everywhere. Looking for a genuinely lightweight 12g semi I bought one, inspite of the fact that Weatherby do not offer a warranty (they aren't expected to breakdown), it works faultlessly.

GazzerG Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Had a 612s really nice gun. I couldn't get on with it at all, might of been the high rib on the sporter model, but I couldn't hit anything. Nice gun for the money though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeepThought Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 They must be good, this thread has been running for nearly a day now and there isn't a single post suggesting a second hand Beretta or Browning instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
