Need to bed in my new Beretta semi...

Meanwhile, back on topic I managed 180 carts through the gun today both 32 and 28gram. Absolutely no problem at all...

 

Just cleaned it though and it appears to have lost some inner 'coating' of the barrel about 1/3 way from the breech just where the piston housing is attached. Taking it back tomorrow! :blush:

 

Cheers

I certainly do, you haven't got a monopoly on religious understanding matey. Just maybe the offence you're taking to it is an indication of your insecurity in your own blind beliefs?? And before mods blow a fuse with my last sentence, it's all about blind faith. So much reliance put on one book and so much evil and suffering caused by fighting over the various different versions of it. Get real, sign of the witness? It was a kiddies depiction of a fish well before your lot nicked it.

 

Sorry mate by Charlie D's texts, based on a lifetime of research and still scientifically valid, makes more sense to me than a bookful of disjointed stories. My last about it on her unless you want to kick it off on another topic. I don't want to derail this one. Sorry OP.

 

 

its a best seller dave, wish i had thought about it first, wud keep the clan in beans for years.

Hi Roger,

 

I had the same sticker on the box when i picked up my AL391 in March and had the same thought's as you.

 

I didn't run it in, just used Hull Intercomp HV 28's and Gamebore Super Steel 24's..... 7000 cartridges and it hasn't jammed once, it didn't like a 24g straight after I changed the recoil spring but other than that it's been faultless.

 

Enjoy the gun!

 

Jon.

 

 

Ok, have I missed something here, I spend days breaking in my new rifles but what is this about the Shotgun?

 

My 391 Field Gold is about 10 years old, it had nothing on the box or instructions as far as I recall about this, its had a few 1000 carts through it since and the only problem it has experienced is the shooter!? :oops::hmm:

as an owner of 3 semi auto at the minute and a dew others over the years I haven;t had any problems with any of mine miss firing, I think the secret is to keep them well cleaned with as little as possible oil on them when rebuilding, dry lube is excellent stuff as it doesn't attract dirt and carbon etc. there is a good YouTube video of a Beretta worker showing how to strip down an AL 391 -- worth a watch :good:

No,

 

I think it's a recent thing from Beretta, my personal feeling is that they are just covering their backsides if people are using very light loads. So far as i'm aware it's just to be the action in.

 

Mine is now approaching 9000 rounds through it and provided the case is 70mm + it cycles EVERYTHING 21, 24, 28, 32g+ even after replacing the recoil spring it only choked on 1 cartridge which was a 24g white gold.

 

In summary:

 

It wasn't run in and has only failed to cycle once in 8000 plus rounds, hasn't had a full strip for 3000 rounds plus due to a lack of time so it's very reliable :lol:

i`ve used a gun that had a special diet. when my friend just got his spas12, it needed 36g to get the action moving. no joke, it would hand up on every 2.5" cart, and every cartridge below 36g.

i`m going to break in my m2 with a box of 32g steel, that should cycle anything. and then feed it 1oz steel loads for a while. i bought a 24" m2 so cyl choke with skeet in mind.

either way it get a good load through it.

Cookoff013, i put about 100 28g claybusters through my M2 when it was new one afternoon, more for me to get used to it than anything else, and i've never had a problem with it. It's done about 1000 rounds from 28g to 36g since with no issue. It does say to put a slab of something heavy through it in the manual, but mine certainly didnt need it.
