BRNDL Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Hello, As the title states, I am wondering if any of your guys have much experience with the above gun? I know it is a budget gun ect ect but I have read mixed reviews. I really like the feel of them, and also the look. The deluxe has the 3" chamber and is proofed for steel which I want from a gun. For a cicra price of £500 - £600 second hand in tip top condition I cant overlook the possibility of buying one. Thanks in advance, BRNDL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a miroku 3800 but it isnt proofed for steel. What makes them a better gun? I have got one from new great gun and looks the business What are they new, £900 or something? When I looked at 2 at the local gun shop I was impressed. Nice looking, lovely weight ect and nice detail. I cant see, unless the internals are made from chocolate where you can really go wrong with this gun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwade545 Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Had one, great gun, great looking, rub a bit of oil into the stock and it come up a treat, here is a link. http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/topic/199450-bettinsoli-sporting-deluxe/?hl=%2Bbettinsoli+%2Bdeluxe personally never had a problem with double discharging, put few thousand cartridges through it. Think that the fix is quite cheap and straight forward if they do it. Nice weight, little recoil, adjustable recoil pad and LOP so you can improve fit a little easily. Only sold mine as I got a nice deal on a beretta 687 el. At that cost it is still 300-400 pounds cheaper then a miroku that will be steel proofed so thats a lot of repairs or cartridges. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
station Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 ive just seen people having alot of problems with bettinsoli on here, double discharge etc Early ones - yes, some issues. Later CNC machined ones are all good as far as I am aware. I bought one new about a month back as a lightweight game gun. I have put 1000 cartridges through it (not all game shots unfortunately) and love it - never missed a beat ! Do you know how old it is? What warranty comes with it ? I paid £795 new with 3 yr warranty and also got a cheap deal on some cartridges. ATB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oggyogden40 Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 I have one which my son uses and he loves it ! I've offered to trade it in for him but he wont let me it fits him spot on and he shoots brill with it ! You could have a forty grand gun but if it doesn't fit it isn't any good !!

-Mongrel- Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 No idea on the warranty but I'd doubt it. As for the gun, I had one and it was faultless once it had been properly cleaned and had gallons of gloopy grease taken out of the action!! Good gun for the money IMO, I'd buy another.

Reeceknight Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 I have a bettinsoli and it's what a class as "my clay gun" and it's spot on, shoots and feel not a lot different than my friend £1900 beretta. really nice well built guns and I have had no issues with mine what so ever and for under a grand they look the part aswell. Either way they all go bang buy what fits you and what u like the look of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRNDL Posted October 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Son has the diamond delux great gun I used it at the weekend and its a dream. Is he selling it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davyo Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) No I only got it for him last Nov, on my licence as he's only 14 but he shoots well with it I've use it a couple of times and its a dream much better than my lanber snd better quality, sorry it the diamond x grade.Think we paid about £800 for it, retail was £890 but I bought the younger son a new BSA SE MULTI with a dive bottle so got a bit knocked off the Bettinsoli.Never had a bettinsoli before but this gun was my sons choice,I give him a budget of a grand and thats what he decided on.

kennett Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 I have one and love it, brand new £675 with 5x chokes. Took it out the first evening, had 26 for 35 shots, then 146 for 220 shots so obviously shoots well and seems to fit a treat! All my mates that have seen it like it and at that price, if it gets muddy or bashed in a hide its not the end of the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
