ratboy Posted November 22, 2006 Report Share Posted November 22, 2006 PLEASE DON'T REPLY COS I'VE POSTED THIS IN THE WRONG SECTION I recently posted wanting a mint Beretta 686e and amongst other items a cheap field gun. The Beretta is sorted cos I'm buying new ...Hoorah Whilst in the shop, I mentioned that I was also intersted in a cheap Auto for rough and field work. At this point the chap went into his back room and produced a synthetic Escort 12G auto, brand new with a price tag of £275. He told me that this was what alot of game keepers use cos its a great gun for not alot of money. I have seen some old posts on this and most people agree that they are good for the money and the odd one or two say that they have had bad experiences. Has anyone had chance to live with one for a while, how does it fare over time? Are they better or worse than when they first came out? All views and experiences would be great. Thanks everyone. SORRY, I'VE POSTED THIS IN THE WRONG SECTION. Please don't reply on this section, I'll repost it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
