mickmep Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 if you like semi auto's a secondhand beretta urika should be within your grasp at 500 notes. if you want a decent semi a bit cheaper a beretta 303 would be around 350-400. personally would spend the extra for the urika. theres some bargain secondhand sx2 and sx3 winchester semi's about as well. not sure you'll get a lot of new gun for your money, i would think you'd be better off with a quality pre owned gun than a 'budget' new one.

He cannot get on with it and he is asking £550 for it. it has a walnut stock and is in as new condition. What do you reckon - BigRob.

Dibs Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 Have to agree, a semi seems to be the way to go if you like them. I have a Winchester SX3 and if you can find a bargain they are just superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDAV Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 (edited) how much dose that usally cost? Teague will multichoke your current gun for £250 ish or change the fixed choke for £40 per barrel + Vat other smiths may charge more or less but gives you a starting point http://www.teagueprecisionchokesltd.co.uk/prices.html Edited July 26, 2010 by HDAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
