08shooter Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 ive had baikal ,2 712 franchis and winchester. all good guns that never missed a beat. the main name is beretta but i think other guns are ok but beretta will hold the value better.they dont fit me thats why i never bought one. take a good look around. go for a good brand name, id stay clear of the turkish market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenlander Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 For reliabilty, performance,handling,and resale value ,as well as low recoil,you wont go wrong with a Beretta. I have one myself,but this do'snt mean 'im gun blind,I cant get on with there O/Us and prefer Browning and Mirokus, but when it comes to semis in my oppinion Beretta are No 1.

luckytrigger Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 you havnt said how much you want to spend? i would go with Beretta. My first semi was a remington 1100 lovely semi but the 391 beretta i now have is in a different league altogether Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trevor Posted July 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 money no object will get the extrema if they fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oly Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 If you can afford an urika, extrema, or tenkys go for one of those. If it's an older beretta the recoil is about the same as an escort or many other gas operated semi's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRDS Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Benelli make the best semis IMHO and I have owned 3 x SA Berettas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-peter Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 Benelli make the best semis IMHO and I have owned 3 x SA Berettas. I sold my benelli because it was cartridge choosy. not my beretta a better gun all round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alison391 Posted July 1, 2007 Report Share Posted July 1, 2007 I have had 2 beretta semi autos and if i was in the market for another semi it would be beretta, i tried all sorts before i got mine and most of the others you could either hear or feel the mechanism on, but the beretta felt smooth and was a lovely fit, i changed to an u/o recently and that is also a beretta. If you can get to humberside shooting ground or a shop that has a ground so you can try before you buy it would be time well spent. alison391 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
