Gordon R Posted May 20, 2017 Report Share Posted May 20, 2017 The seller could do with some more photos - top lever position for instance. Stock and forend seem very ill-matched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
214299 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Thank you Gordon R for giving us the benefit of your opinion. I am sure Perrazi would also be interested in your opinion that they are not very good at matching stock to forend on their product. Perrazi can be contacted at. www.perazzi.it/ email info@perazzi.it Perazzi, 1 (ex Via Fontanelle, 1) - 25082 - Botticino Mattina, (BS) ITALY Tel. +39 030 2696001 Fax +39 030 2692594 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon R Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Superb!! Well said! Nothing like an "expert's" advice from three photos! Thanks for the junior critique, but a blind man could spot the difference. Thank you Gordon R for giving us the benefit of your opinion. I am sure Perrazi would also be interested in your opinion that they are not very good at matching stock to forend on their product. I presume that you have already contacted Perazzi to check that these are the original stock and forend. Otherwise, you might look just a little silly. The bottom photo appears to show wood of different shades. Then again, even experts such as the two of you might have missed that. Once you have stopped having a pop, you might consider that the seller could actually post photos which will help sell the gun, rather than attracting debate from a couple of amateurs like you, who know very little.

214299 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Many years ago on a lovely sunny day, I was stood in a Cheshire field at a DTL shoot talking to an old guy in his late 70's. Stood next to us was a couple of blokes deep in very a loud conversation about another guys S06. What they didn't know about that S06 !!! They would have but Beretta to shame. The old guy said to me "you know lad there is only one thing worse than a pseudo expert and that's a pseudo expert who butts into other people business giving his unsolicited opinion when he wants to show the world how little he knows". How true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 It's a shame that you didn't follow his advice. He might have also given you some tips on how to spot non-matching woodwork. It might have saved you from looking a bit silly, many years later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjaferret Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Maybe some better pic's would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Agreed - that is all that I said. Photos don't always show the same colour. The seller might be well advised to take a couple more and check how they appear. The range of photos is not brilliant - top lever position, barrel blueing, underside of action - might all have helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabel25 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 The seller is not a PW member so may not have seen these above comments, perhaps someone could contact him through Gun Watch I have to agree that some better photo's may help The flash from a camera can give the wrong image of timber or even bright sunlight shining through a window Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 He's not doing the ad justice I have a Perazzi MT6 (basically the same gun) it has amazing wood, highly figured and a deep red colour. If this is even half as good I would want photos that show the quality off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
