will its always funny reading your posts on here :D doesnt like to shoot trap but willing to spend 6 grand :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: out of those 3 i would deffinately go for the perazzi mx 2005, very very nice guns :) the one u linked is 31 1/2 barrels, monte carlo adjustable stock, adjustable rib and most likely multi choke, but doesnt matter if its fixed, absolutely perfect for you, i wouldnt go for a 29 1/2 barrels mate

your choice but good luck with whatever you decide :) i know someone who has a 2005 same as that and i love it, very nice in real life and nice to shoot with but there again its set up for him!

ps. see what bywell and chris potter have in stock mate as they specialise in perazzis

If you going for a griff stock it doesn't matter what the current wood is like. K80 and a new skeet vest........ Try muliners in Dorset they have a lot of kreighoff

If I were to buy one with an adjustable stock I wouldn't get a evo comp stock , that's why the original plan of the MX8 had a standard stock on it so I would change it for an evo one :)

If you are just going to shoot DTL, buy a K80.

 

All K80's have a 10 year warranty, the must have annual service is a myth, believe me I've had two which have had warranty work done and neither had been for an annual service.

if you are just going to shoot DTL, buy a PERAZZI :yes:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

In the end buy what you can break clays with.The name on the side is a feel good thing.

 

Wise words indeed :good:

 

I've a mate who got wrapped up in buying bigger and better over and over again, he poured thousands into his obsession, lost his fiancee and child in the process and even bought guns back that he'd traded in beforehand, only to sell them on again - but guess what; it didn't make him shoot any better.

 

Finally, he bought an old miroku from a farmer with the intention of using it for rough shooting with me, a bit of a post driver really. For the princely sum of "just" £400 he got the gun he'd been missing all along - the one he could really shoot with! That put him on the county team too iirc :lol:

 

Ironically, he went on to buy a winchester trap gun that I now own as I can hit far more with it than any gun I've ever tried! It's no good for pigeons but I can and have beaten him at the clays with it (and I'm hopeless with a shotgun normally) - a fact I love to remind him about as often as possible :lol:

Visited malmo guns today to have look at some trap guns , I took three away with me to my club to try out. In the picture from the top is a Perazzi MX8 fixed choke , then the Perazzi MX20005 fixed choke and the Krieghoff K80

I'm being totally honest here now, but like I've said before I'm no trap shooter but I was breaking clays like no tomorrow , not just clipping them or splitting them I was absolutely vaporising the clays to dust with majority with first barrel . All 3 shot superb and I was amazed with the the Krieghoff it felt very comfortable and stable to shoot :)

All 3 guns were set up by Bryan at malmos and I'm not touching the set up with the one I ended up with, which was the MX20005 , the reason I chose that one is because It felt very similar to my MX2000s , there's 2 or 3 tiny marks on the woodwork which I'm not too fussed about but more importantly to me is the metal work is in A1 mint condition :yes:

As I've said before you can save yourself quite a few £££££ on buying a used one, I've looked on the web and I think I've seen them for sale at about £8500 so I've saved myself by buying one a few years old and saving about £2500 :D
