streaky Posted December 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 hi again guys, been looking at some second hand guns, got between £4/500 to spend...... possibly a little more should it be required. been looking at winchester 101, webley & scott 900 or 912 and have seen a couple of beretta's in my price range. anyone got any views on these guns? Have noticed you can get shotguns for as little as £50??? why so cheap, are they that bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have noticed you can get shotguns for as little as £50??? why so cheap, are they that bad the webley is a good all rounder for the money but more importantly a good fit will help you much better than a fancy tag. See if you can get a lesson with a decent instructor who can advise then get searching here, gun trader, avalon guns(huge stock) and look out for a bargain!

rimmie Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 my best advise would be to buy a second hand beretta something like a silver pigeon it will last you a life time if you look after it just make sure you check the age so you dont buy a old one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
