COACH Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Sorry to say, they are renowned for it. Also not firing the second barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisAsh Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 (edited) Sorry to say, they are renowned for it. Also not firing the second barrel. First I have heard of them being renown for it, do you know the reason it happens, most other guns that you hear this about, are due to poor cleaning of the back end rather than any design faults Edited March 18, 2010 by ChrisAsh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebarrels Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Ive got one and never had a problem with it however its my back-up gun and spends longer in the cabinet,than out in the field ive heard quite a few reports on them DDing,never happened to me,but there must be some truth in the reports BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wymberley Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Now that's what I'd call a magnum. You could put 6s in one barrel and 7s in the other, just think of the arguments that would resolve! Sorry, mate, couldn't help it. You must be really peeved and I hope that you get it all sorted soonest. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaun4860 Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 The early ones did get a reputation for it but the newer ones were sorted, Cant you take it back to where you bought it from.. shaun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhw100 Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 can safely say i aint never had a prob with mine and it's had about 2000 shots through it. the biggest problem is me at the other end of it! (joke) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShooterTom Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Hi, I had 2 of them and both double discharged . I bought mine in dec and i think they had it more in that time than i did! Anyways i took mine back and got a full refund. Apparently Bettinsoli produced a batch of them with dodgy sears and they dont know which ones are affected so cannot do a recall, so it seems like it the luck of the draw whether you end up with a decent one. Hope this helps Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catfisher Posted March 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 i am returning the bettinsoli to the dealer and having maybe a winchester select Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COACH Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 If you get a Winchester select, get the select 2 stonecoat. The first lot of selects were absolute rubbish and handled badly as any old Winchester shooter will tell you. The select 2 is a far superior gun and at £1000 is a very serious bit of kit indeed.
