As others have said it might happen to me it might not. I take people's points about budget guns looking nice etc which might I add this one does, but seeing as I don't shoot every weekend I feel for me this gun and price would suit me just fine. I hope not to get the problems others have had but their customer service sounds very good. I think I will make a decision over the weekend then if I deciding will go and buy on Monday.

I've got a Bettinsoli in the cabinet that is around 25 years old. Bought it in the days when Uttings were importing them and having lavish full page adverts in Sporting Gun.

 

I'm sure it's a bit of a hybrid put together with whatever they had in the factory at the time - it's a sideplate model, 30" multichokes, advertising showed 2-3/4" chambers. Mine somehow has full magnum proof 3" - too be honest it throws some great patterns if you class the extra 1/4" as a nice forcing cone!

 

Currently out of action due to a cracked stock, too many magnum loads through it shooting wildfowl - must really get it to a gunsmith and given a full overhaul, then get the stock repaired and fitted to me.

 

Bombproof? They're not fancy guns, but in my experience they're well made and some models you certainly get more for your money.
