oowee Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 How do you get on with the escort? I got one this year and now i am cleaning it with SAS spray its great. But after about 5000 shells there is a small burr forming at the front of the ejector port. Have you noticed the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedge Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Alright lads. What's a good price for a escort? Heard some good reviews about then so thinking of getting one for pigeon shooting. Mark Alright lads. What's a good price for a escort? Heard some good reviews about then so thinking of getting one for pigeon shooting. Mark I paid about £275 for my 2nd hand (almost new) black synthetic one. It works and I don't have to worry about it getting wet, muddy etc. Some have said avoid the early 1st generation guns as they could be of variable quality. I have a gen 2 which is fine (they prefer 70mm carts) and my mate has the gen 3 (extended chokes). Not bad for the money and does the job.

hedge hunter Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 A gun shop down my way sells them from £350 brand new, I know my mate picked 1 up last week, plus iv had mine about 2 yrs know and love it. In fact its the only gun I use, but mines a 20bore synthetic in magic wood, light as a feather but looks like real wood. Never had a jam or nowt, I only put eley high flyers through it, and when I could get them eley ct, cheers hh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will move the flight line real rapid shooting at birds you do not drop, they are canny birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
