About £600m--£700 new with a 7 year warranty made by the Bennelli boys. Its a no brainer. I got one for wildfowling and love it so simple and practical (and cheap) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bargain. AND, it will still be going when most of the other have been melted down ! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fill with mud and shoot, jams hit it with your hand and shoot, dip iit in and out the water to wash the mud out and then carry on shooting as normal. Certainly some gun.

I know of an incident where a young wildfowler came across a dinghy out on the marsh. It had broken from it's moorings during a storm. Between us we righted the boat, he then sat in it and awaited the next tide. When it eventually floated again, he paddled it back to shore using his gun as a paddle. The gun in question .............................a BAIKAL ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted October 25, 2020 Report Share Posted October 25, 2020 I can believe it, bet the gun would still shoot fine if he had chance at a bird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Best Posted October 25, 2020 Report Share Posted October 25, 2020 Yep, Baikals make great paddles, fence posts, hedge stakes, hammers and all the rest. Nuff said! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWildfowler Posted November 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 Thanks for all the advice guys. I think I’ll go for either the Armsan or the Winchester depending on which fits better. Should have my license through this week and wanted but looks like covid may make me wait before I can go out shopping! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman Posted November 3, 2020 Report Share Posted November 3, 2020 I have a Benelli M2, Beretta A400 and an Armsan A612. Have to say that the M2 is by far the best auto i have owned mainly due to the ease of cleaning and it fits me better but I love the other two as well. I really cant knock the Armsan have had it a few years now and its been faultless, its my go to gun when its raining as I dont care too much about it. It goes bang every time and things fall out of the sky so works very well in my book! If your sold on an auto and watching the budget I dont think you'll go wrong with the Armsan.

Armsan has to be one of the best value for money guns around at present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
