shaggy Posted March 16, 2006 Report Share Posted March 16, 2006 am i right in presuming that the beretta semi auto (tekneys?) is a pump? and if so do you have to pump between shots or does the recoil set the firing pin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 A semi-auto is a self loader. Which means what it says on the tin; it automatically loads a new cartridge into the breech either using the gasses vented off the barrel, or the actual recoil of the barrel itself to cycle the action. A pump-action is simply the same action…..but you have to do all the work by yourself by cycling the action manually. G.M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benelli 1 Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Shaggy, have you tried a pump and semi? It'd be worth your while if at all possible. My mate tried his semi in a pump. said it was a waste of money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargeant Bang Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Pumps are best suited to movie sets in Hollywood (no cars don't always explode if you shoot one with a pump). For actual proper shooting the semi is far better as they are easier to aim and then keep on target, and also faster to get the rounds off than a pump. Thats my two bob's worth anyway.
