Lucent Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Hello All, Recently my 686E and my friends White Onyx fell over at a clay shoot. Both were unloaded (obviously) and were about to be dismantled and put back in the car but the fore end on mine is slightly cracked and my friends has some scuff marks. Does anyone know where i can buy replacements? Although it is only cosmetic it will obviously effect residual value long term. I tried to contact Beretta directly but my emails fell on deaf ears, any thoughts very welcome! V best Luc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucent Posted February 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 Hi All, & thank you for the helpful speedy replies! Martin that link looks great, good work. I am not sure of the product numbers but i will give them a buzz and see if they can help. When you say make arrangements, that sounds interesting; are you in the import / export biz?? lol. I think the fore-ends for the 686e and White Onyx are interchangeable although getting matching wood may not be so easy. Re the East V West, i am signed up for the forthcoming clay comp as discussed at length in the clay forum. You should get involved, we can put them to shame :-) (bring shame on myself more like)...... I did try and contact Beretta and GMK independently but no one responded. Maybe worth another chase but it;s infuriating sending email and getting no response! Muchos kudos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Try Chris Potter Guns in Kent. They normally have a few Beretta stocks and forends - secondhand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catamong Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 I have a forend from a 682 Gold E that may fit, the wood may be too dark, let me know if you want it. Cat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucent Posted February 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Wow thanks Cat you are a scholar and a gentleman! That would be amazing! I have got paypal if you want to name your price :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catamong Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 (edited) I got it off a gun dealer friend for a Tenner, so that's all I would want for it, plus whatever it costs to post to you. If you PM me your name & address, I will stick it in the post to you on Monday. If you like it, send me a cheque by return, or I'll send the boys round to kneecap you , if it doesn't fit or you don't like it just post it back to me. Cheers, Cat.

Lucent Posted February 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Too right - Martin should play a key role in the proceedings. He has been ultra-helpful so far, we gotta get him involved for the grand finale! Cat, thanks again i have pm'd you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
