HDAV Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 Arsan A612 S Sporting look familiar? http://www.armsan.com/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=50 Just can't find anyone in the UK selling them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtaylor Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 They look very smart. Would be interesting to see how much they would cost. Would it be possible to import them, does anyone have any idea what the cost of this would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted December 14, 2010 Report Share Posted December 14, 2010 (edited) Here is a test of one http://www.targetsportsmagazine.com/features/view/10308/shotgun-review-turkish-delight/ I was a little surprised that Brocock Ltd are the importer.

poontang Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Not a bad looking gun compared to some, but at £624 I'd give it a miss. http://www.armsan.com/Content/Medya/Doc/Clay%20Shooting%20-%20Armsan%20A612%20S%20Sporting.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDAV Posted December 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 Ouch I would think realistic retail is some what lower.... Than the SRP But I would expect it to be below half the flanigans price!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adymorris Posted December 17, 2010 Report Share Posted December 17, 2010 The internals are not that different from my Hatsan semi auto - looks like a Turkish copy of a Turkish copy with added bling at twice the price to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted December 18, 2010 Report Share Posted December 18, 2010 it aint the sx3 though, just a similar colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dekers Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 The internals are not that different from my Hatsan semi auto - looks like a Turkish copy of a Turkish copy with added bling at twice the price to me Nobody can tell until a few have been in the field for a while, and the internals of many semis look "similar", but this looks far more of a gun than a Hatsan on the face of it. Time will tell, there are some decent/value guns out of Turkey, they are not all turkeys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daveo26 Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 The wooden ones acceptable but the garish anodised red thing is brutally wrong. With modern manufacturing methods im sure its fairly well put together but i could'nt turn up at a clay shoot with one. It would go like this...... Someone: ah a Winchester? me: no, its not. Someone: oh well it looks like one. Me: yeah but i can't afford the real thing so I spent nearly 700 notes on this pig instead, sorry whats that?....yes i suppose I am an idiot thanks!

HDAV Posted December 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Imitation is the Highest Form of Flattery.... I doubt it would realistically retail for over £600 as you can get an SX3 for £900 but for £4-500 ideal for wannabes noticed a few "flanigans" and tend to be shot by younger males from 12-20 or middle-aged guys and always seem to have the matching vest slip and bag. That said some may find it garish the SX3 is a good gun, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 That is horrible! - looks like it should be about two hundred quid! I have the SX3 Flannigan. I shoot it as its the clay version of the SX3 (extended chokes etc), fits me like a glove and is superbly balanced and set up for clays. Its an absolutely brilliant gun at a bargain price. Pick up a normal SX3 and then the Flannigan, if its for clays there is something about the Flannigan that sets it apart from the less colourful ones. I dont have the matching bag or vest etc though.

Time will tell, there are some decent/value guns out of Turkey, they are not all turkeys Quite true was merely an observation old boy, that's the point of most Turkish guns though isn't it - they all look similar to something else only this one is also a similar price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
