Hamster Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 There is nothing much wrong with Brownings, you were a tad unlucky I would say. You may prefer them aesthetically or handling wise but when all is said and done they are not quite up there with Beretta mechanically or from a longevity point of view.

caeser Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Anyone that slags either one of these manufacturers is very blinkered. I've just read some rubbish here. Both are fabulous guns. Whatever one you feel comfortable with yourself, is the best one for you. Simple as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadeye Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) both a very good guns and they are both in many models within the grasp of a man who has to work for a living. the berettas invariably fit me better and i have friends who prefer the fit of brownings. go with the one that fits you the best. p.s. the brownings feel like a big huskey bravarian farm girl and the berettas feel like a beautifully shaped super model.

deadeye Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 all bulls@%t aside there are several primary reasons why i prefer a beretta 687/686 optima series guns. they are as follows: 1-foremost...they fit me very well out of the box. if the brownings fit me, i would be shooting brownings. 2-the beretta is designed to be relatively easy to rebuild(conical locking lugs are replaceable and the disks on which the gun pivots are replaceable. 3-the above mentioned series beretta guns are very easy to disassemble for thorough cleaning...the ejectors pop out without tools and with a beretta stock wrench you can easily remove the butt stock for periodic cleaning(especially handy it you and your gun get caught in a heavy rain while afield) Having stated all that, the brownings are excellent guns and are made very sturdy with top materials and you do not have to be an arab oil sheik to own one. for the money the brownings and the berettas are the best value going for over and under shotguns.

gixer1 Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Funny how winchesters are never thrown into this as they build a good gun in the lightweight class. Regards, Gixer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humperdingle Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Funny how winchesters are never thrown into this as they build a good gun in the lightweight class. Regards, Gixer Especially the older models... I had a Winchester 101 for a while, but stupidly sold it... Really wish i'd kept that one :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
