squodged Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 I like the look of them and they seem an honest looking gun but.............. Are Escort Semi Auto's really any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oly Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 Had one for a year or so and they are excellent value for money Never let me down, very point'able...what more do you want from a gun!! Like someone else put on here once, they are an excellent entry level semi if your unsure as to whether or not to explore the world of semi's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun4860 Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 has to be 70mm carts in mine as well, its a fac 5 shot and runs like a dream, good rough gun. i think you got the wording right....*rough*..... lad at my gun club had one....just felt cheap and nasty...he then traded it for a new webley....that spent ages back getting fixed..they ended up giving him a new one... imo spend your money on a second hand beretta...will still be going long after all the others have died.....

EvoCars Posted July 13, 2007 Report Share Posted July 13, 2007 their good guns, mine cycles any size carts fine, did have a bit of trouble with my hammer spring, hadnt worn out, just iffy from new, now thats been changed its perfect, no missfires and cycles perfectly, i know people say the berettas are better, but at this sort of price range, you could be buying a worn out gun, atleast the escorts got a 3 year warranty, parts and labour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death from below Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 I like the look of them and they seem an honest looking gun but.............. Are Escort Semi Auto's really any good? get a second handberetta 391........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 I picked one up out of the rack, tried it for size,thought "fence post" and put it back. I do not need one but would strongly advise a used Beretta auto. Any model is a better gun than an escort. Please, any satisfied escort users out there who are going to tell me that their escort is better than a Beretta don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniel Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Hi I have a SP3 and an Escort, SP3 cost £1200 Escort £350. Guess which one I use out in the field for pigeon shooting. Its cheap and I hit the pigeons , if it gets scratched so what, it only cost a few hundred pounds. Is the Escort better then my Berretta....No, Is it better to take out in the field for a bit of rough shooting...Yes Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaniel Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 I have great fun with my SA, but the only thing you have to remember is that you have 3 up the barrell and not 2. and watch your fingers Cheers Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
