Robin128 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) I've been reading the few threads on here about Revo shotguns. I've already got two O/U which work well on clays along with a semi auto and a rather nice AYA No2. Just looking for a bit more fun especially on what we loosly describe as practical shotgun. Already use my s1 semi auto to great effect but fancy a s2 pump gun also. I narrowed it down to a Benelli Super Nova or a Remington 870/887... both costing c£600 and out of stock for miles around. Not sure I want to spend that much on a pump gun anyway and don't want to chance buying a second hand lemon. So I'm waiting for the Sportsman GC to get the consignment of Revo Turkish guns in from the proof house. So here's my question...yes I know it's a cheap gun but bare in mind, a lot of top whack shotguns bearing the above quality names are made in Turkey also. The question? Has anyone got a Revo Field PA and what do you think of it? Please just don't fall behind the usual group think of the gang on here and start singing the same song.

brett1985 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 ive not used one but sportmans in exeter had the matrix semi auto in and i went to have a look at it. didnt actually seem that bad for the money. put it this way, it certainly didnt look like it had been put together in a cow shed, lol. the fit was pretty good and it felt sturdy. i am toying with the idea of getting one instead of a hatsan. the pump looks like a good cheap, no frills gun. however, i would put the money to buying a used one of a better quality, as ive seen pumps go very cheap recently... im sure there was an SXP on here for like £350 the other day?!?!?

Fuji Shooter Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) The Winchester SXP can be purchased for £350 new from a few dealers. My local dealer can't keep them in stock long enough. Got to be a better bet than a Revo. Edited January 25, 2013 by Freakmode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin128 Posted January 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) The Winchester SXP fell off the short list as a function of the following review... :( http://www.gunmart.n...p_black_shadow/ Hasn't anyone tried the Revo Field PA???

brett1985 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 If you want a good idea of what the revo shotguns are like, google khan shotguns. Same company, same guns, slightly different names. Mixed reviews from across the pond, cant find much on khan pumps though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin128 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Yeah...already noticed the Khan's and downloaded their catalogue. Been also looking at Escorts and there does seem to be some similarities between top brands and cheapo guns all made in the same factories in Turkey. I'm just wonderiong if all we are paying for is branding. I'll have to try a PA...if I get my hands on one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin128 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm just not convinced the Benelli was worth the money. It strikes me as fll of gimmicks. Have to try the Revo. Already have a great Beretta s1 semi auto ... but not convinced that a Benelli s2 pump gun is worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
