fronty61 Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 I have a 12 gauge, and 20 gauge versions, use .410, 28 and 20 bore adapters as needed, perfect walk up hedgerow gun. Only weighs 5.6 lbs, but £20 Pachmayer slipon pad solves the recoil problem..bought for £20 and £40..result up to about 35 yards ? I opened full choke up by 8 thou for a good game pattern, and no mulched birds or bunnies ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fronty61 Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 Beretta made a DTL version with 30 ? inch bbl , sold in the States in the 80s..very few about, maybe they had a different Idea of DTL ? Saw one in a pawn shop in Jupiter , Florida about 2001 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno22rf Posted July 6, 2018 Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Snipe had a top lever ditchman, pretty sure, and this cocked the action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
