big bad lindz Posted December 9, 2020 Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 Hi I have been looking at replacing my Franchi Harrier. I have seen a good condition second hand Beretta that suits my budget of under £800 but the fore stock and the butt stock appear to be a different colour. The fore stock is much lighter and I am thinking that this may be a mixed repair/ refurbished gun. The person selling it says this happens sometimes ?? I was told that the gun was around 20 years old. Is this something to expect ?? Very undecided as I can get a new Franchi for around the same price.
