ferretmanabu Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 I'm looking for a second hand gun between 100 - 200 pounds for rough shooting. I wanted to get a semi as I have a pretty nice berett ou at the moment. Any suggestions as to best gun for reliability? If semi is not available for my price range then I'll look into ou so suggestions for those has well please. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
webber Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 I doubt that you will find a reliable semi in your price range. £350 would get you a decent Beretta 303. I guess that for around £150 you would get a reasonable Biakel OU, but anything with a sought after brand is unlikeley to apear for sale in you price bracket. It might be an idea to save up a while longer rather than let the brass burn a whole in your pocket. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apbuild Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 I think he Rifleman means the murmerings about banning semi-automatic shotguns Erhyha. There is a letter in Octobers Sporting Gun which briefly touches on this subject. (Page 55). Rob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferretmanabu Posted September 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 Surely it'll be a while before they enforce any ban on semis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plinker Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 is it true that sharp knives and drawing pins are also to be banned or will we be allowed to keep them on a ticket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
