mick-wiffam Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 Personaly speaking i would always pick the beretta/browning i have tried a lot of cheaper guns before and ended up with berettas anyway they just dont shoot the same the big makes..just my opinion hth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 I would also go for a s/h browning/beretta, if you pay £600 for it now and want to trade it/sell it a while down theline, the gun will stil be worth the same money aslong as you look after it,A new betinoslli will lose money alot faster, see what suits you and try a few out before you buy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wabbitbosher Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Hello , whatch out mate buying a second hand gun is like buying a second hand car !! Full of pit falls take some body with you that REALLY knows shotguns ,, or for the extra few quid buy from a reputable dealer (they are bound by law not to sell you a dangerous gun) look on the web as well theres some great advice on buying secondhand guns ,, Happy Shooting dude! P.S Loads of dealers have a clay trap to let you have a go with a few guns get you used to different shapes of stock weights etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red_stag88 Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 Have a look at an AYA no.4 for a s/s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PENFOLD Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 me i would go for a secondhand beretta or browning, betonsolli are on the heavy side and note made of good metal (monkey metal) u can get good 2nd hand beretta browning from some good gunshops at a reasonble price!

darren m Posted January 19, 2004 Report Share Posted January 19, 2004 I went for a second hand Miroku mk10 in mint condition £750 and i'm very pleased, its as good a quality as a Browning and was better ( for me to shoot) than my Beretta silver pigeon, so i think this make may also be worth considering in my opinion anyways.
