Scully Posted June 11, 2022 Report Share Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) Just had a look; must admit Beretta get it right with high grades. It’s a shame about the gold trigger mind. 🙂 Edited June 11, 2022 by Scully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wylye Posted June 11, 2022 Report Share Posted June 11, 2022 Nothing not to like really. Game scene is preferable. As long as it comes from a good home and has been looked after you're on a winner. Clay shooters like the 32" but the 30" makes a great game gun. Examine the stock very carefully for cracks. Any sign, walk away. A few on Guntrader so that will give you some idea of price levels.

Johnny English Posted June 12, 2022 Report Share Posted June 12, 2022 My father in law has one and he's been very pleased with it, great all round gun if you shoot clays and game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrshireshooter Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 (edited) I am in same boat. Was looking at this and s04/s05 which can be similar money. dt10 is smart choice really as much newer design, much more solid, better clay cruncher probably. Not quite as lovely and pretty but still a stunner. I want a 32 inch in mint condition with lovely wood. ps shot 30 inch at Bywell and preferred it to my invictus.

Wylye Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 Don't rule out the later DT11. They are a good, modern alternative to a DT10. The first ones were a bit heavy and dead to shoot but the later ones are very good. SO4's are quite old now although they are lovely things. SO5's are a big gun and a lot have been messed about with. Beware of cracked stocks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beware of cracked stocks! Agree there but I'll assume he wants a "pretty" sideplate gun. dt11 eell wil be 15k even second hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raw and wriggley Posted June 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 Looked at the so5 but think the dt would be the better deal I’d be looking for a 30inch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunny_blaster Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 I use a standard 32” DT10 for all my shooting. I put tens of thousands of cartridges through it every year and it never misses a beat. I tried an 11 and it didn’t feel as nice as the 10. You won’t be disappointed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is one on guntrader with some of the best wood I've seen but it's priced accordingly https://www.guntrader.uk/guns/shotguns/beretta/over-under/12-gauge/dt10-eell-220213095115005 malmo guns has cheaper one and I found them pleasure to deal with in past. Also glad you want 30 so we not directly competing 😋 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A DT11 L is SO5 money. Most likely in better condition and will be more reliable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't disagree. depends how much op wants a sideplate/sidelock I guess. personally I prefer the dt10eell in terms of looks even to the dt11eell . Mostly because I prefer game scenes and that old school look. Edited June 13, 2022 by Ayrshireshooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Heron Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 There's a dt10eell here at Doveridge that I'm looking at but not to buy 12 gauge 28 inch barrel multi choke £5395. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wylye Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 The barrel length is affecting the price. If it was a 30ins it would be selling for a lot more. £7k retail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUNKS Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Nice one at Hadfield guns. Outstanding wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raw and wriggley Posted June 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Gave them a bell but the nearest they had was a dt11L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
