tweedledee Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 well guys,i finally got to lift my first beretta tonight.it`s a s686e model with adjustable comb. it`s not totally mint and has the odd battle scar but i intend to get the wood done up shortlywhen i bought the gun i was told it was a farmer that had it but i can`t believe how dirty a ******** he was.i never saw chokes and a gun in such a dirty state and the funny thing is i never noticed it the day i bought it.anyhow i have just spent the last hour and a half cleaning it to my kind of standard.i need a manual for it so i`m going to contact gmk for one. initial thoughts are it`s a nice handling gun.where are the roman numerals to try and age it. thanks here`s a few pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagsy Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Did you get the extended chokes with the gun? May be wrong but I seem to recall the 686e coming with flush fitting chokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted August 24, 2008 Report Share Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) Everyone knows the score with pictures.... <wokka wokka indeed> In this instance, I was most concerned to see the "column" in the top left. I will leave it there :o Incidentally, good choice of gun - built like Grandpa's tool shed and it will out last all of us.
