Exudate Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Browning for me. Love my 525. I find the build quality superior to Lanber and W&S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger-Mouse Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 I`d go for the Browning too. Apart from generally liking them it`s also the one most likely to hold it`s value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckandswing Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 The medallist wasn't made by Miroku like current browning's, but I wouldn't say that really detracts from their desirability. I would suggest you go on condition and the availability of parts, and ultimately pick the one you like most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshwarrior Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Ok my view for what it's worth. Lanber had lots of guises some good some rather rough around the edges in sub £500 bracket a good Lanber is hard to beat. Medalist or what it really is a FIAS Italian made gun in 20 bore handles well in 12 they are often poorly balanced especially with 30" barrels ruining handling reliable well made gun for the money. Webley I dislike there look the handling (feel very dead) I just wouldn't go there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsbob Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 The Medalist is not made by Browning, the 912 is Turkish and the Lanber generaly has a good reputation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bang bang birdy Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 I had a medalist 12 gauge and was very happy with it. Mine was the 28 inch. A nice light point able gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 The Medalist isn't a bad gun but it isn't a Browning either. The Webley should be avoided, based on the experiences of two lads I know. The Lanber is a good solid gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westward Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 The Medallist in 12g has a terrible reputation for snapping ejectors. Of the 3 I've known amongst friends and 1 identical Sabatti (FIAS), 2 suffered broken ejectors. Later Lanbers seem to be reliable and solid and as the Turkish built guns are pretty iffy by reputation I'd go with Lanber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 The Browning all day long-it may well be a FIAS/Sabatti but its a good gun that will hold its value-I have a FIAS that is identical in every way to the Browning so you could go down that route-mine was £100 from memory and , after having the chokes opened to SK & 1/4 I had my highest ever score with her last week.
