gazbev Posted April 3, 2013 Report Share Posted April 3, 2013 After advice again, I fancy a new Outlander for 750 quid but I have seen a second hand Urica 1 and a second hand sx3, trouble is they all feel OK to me. The Outlander is a no frills choice with only one choke supplied but has a ten year Beretta warranty, so my dilemma is if they have cheaper parts with the outlander would this effect reliability in the long term or get a second hand top draw semi for the same price.

bullet boy Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 All I can say is I love my SX3-it's a superb gun and doesn't miss a beat. ATB in whatever you choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 SX3 for me aswell, great gun. Never seen a Outlander in the flesh so couldn't say. Figgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootingmike Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 You might want to check on the 10 year warranty matey. I emailed GMK the other day about outlanders and the reply I got said it was a year warranty, extended to 3 years if you register it within 30 days of purchase.. Still not bad, but not 10 years.

gazbev Posted April 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 (edited) Yes lovely guns, the sx3 does come up nice I quite like the raised rib on them too, thanks for the pics, I would definitely have the black synthetic. Just checked the warranty and it is ten years warranty for 45 quid. Cheers Edited April 4, 2013 by gazbev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sx3 clay breaker Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Its ok mate I think the sx3 in camo new is about 800 and the maxus is 1049 its the carbon fibre finish but we have put the same spacer in each to suit me and my dad which is 2 in the back to extend lop 1/2 in and a number 1 r shim on the receiver which raise the comb about a 1/16 th of an in here's the finish up close which is all over apart from the side of the action Atb scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Nice looking gun Scott, is the finish part of the plastics or a coating applied like vinyl wrap or Hydra dip? Figgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootingmike Posted April 4, 2013 Report Share Posted April 4, 2013 Gazbev, Interesting about the extended warranty for 45 quid. That sounds well worth it, out of interest have GMK told you that?? As said, , I literally emailed them on Tuesday and was told 1 year extended to 3 if Registered within 30 days.... for 45 quid it's a no brainier. That said, I do like the sx3!!

gazbev Posted April 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Yes Mike, Not sure how to send links on this I pad but if you google 'gmk ten year beretta warranty' it's the top one, I bought a silver pigeon two years ago and they were doing the warranty free for three months, you are right about the three year warranty it still stands but it's 45 quid for the ten year one, I just looked.

gazbev Posted April 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 Chooses choices, I'm off work next week so will go and handle both again, I've got a feeling the sx3 will feel better but the shop with the beretta and the shop with the Winchester are about 30 miles apart. If there is nothing in it I will go for the Beretta with the warranty, also I have a part ex Lanber 30" multichoke so I will see who gives me the best price on that. As you have probably guessed I don't rush into things. Suppose I could try and sell the Lanber on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewis2012 Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) The outlander is one of the best fitting guns have ever shouldered, well at least for me anyway it just came right up on it. I had a remington versa max and took it back as it felt a little long and just didnt fit.
