fenboy Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Your right guys life is too short , so I will apologize for my opinion that Beretta, Benelli and Remington autos are better than the Hatsan . Of course dawntredder was correct when he pointed this out , so I am now going to start saving for one to replace the versamax . So Merry Xmas dawntredder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But will he "Join the Turkish Army!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerbyshireDale. Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 chill guys and thanks for the info that some have given me my basc is sorted i have my membership number now next is to find guys on the local marsh book a day ticket and hopefulky get shown the ropes for the time being do i a use some 3inch gamebore steels like some have said in my al391 urika 1 as its not steel proofed or do i go and buy some bismuth or likes off and what size shot i was thinking size 3 When asking a question on any site or in any meeting, you will always be smarter to go with the majority, thats why we have voting etc in this country, someone posted a question earlier on "which Dog" would be best to purchase for use on the "Marsh"...about 95% replied "labrador" but you had the "minority" of people advising to use Springers, cockers etc which of course would do the job but in the eyes of the Majority...the Lab came top's...dont forget a lot of very experienced "Wildfowlers" use this forum so on reflection, look at how many negative comments towards each auto have been placed, its then obvious which one "NOT" to choose!....if you dont like the possibillity of your gun jamming then go for a S/S or O/U..the auto only gives you an extra shot but how many times do you shoot 3 out of 3?...usually score a kill with the first or second shot and try to rush a hurried long shot with the 3rd and most times you "dont even get a shot"!! best wishes...Dale.
