I don’t think guns are a good investment no matter the make. It’s a way of enjoying your money while it’s tied up in it. 100% correct Buy,enjoy,sell and do it all again You cant take it with you!

Never had a miroku but shot a couple, didn't get on with them either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red-dot Posted November 13, 2017 Report Share Posted November 13, 2017 I have had dozens of newbies shoot Brownings as their first shooting experience and almost all now own Brownings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could say that of most brands I use as coaching guns but wouldn't be as few as dozens To be clear browning 325s 425s and 525s etc are Mirokus not real Brownings A1s B25s etc are real Brownings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalahari Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 I always think that people have "a Browning face" or "a Beretta face" one will fit better than the other. They are both good reliable bits of kit so shoot the one that fits best. Perhaps this idea is a bit simple? David. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 (edited) No your right Kalahari browning faces are squat fat or round with short necks. Beretta faces have good cheekbones elegant jawlines and graceful necks. Lets not forget the common quote of beretta are too narrow in my hands, I like the chunky feel of brownings. Your gun should be like a magic wand slim and easily handled with aplomb, not a lump of 4”x2” to club things with or use as a fence post knocker.
