ironhorse Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 Beretta AL 391 Ulrika 2 I bought this gun new about 3 weeks ago, to date I have put no more than a hundred cartridges through it, I use eley HB Pigeon 6 shot, the look of this gun is good with it’s matt finish, it handles nice in the field and having a selection of spacers and drop spacers enables you to custom fit the gun to your own preferences, the gun also has the new recoil system which is also impressive, the only thing I am not happy about is the amount of ware on the working parts, the breech bolt and slide are showing in my view excessive wear already, having owned other semi autos I would not expect to see this amount of wear so soon, I will be contacting amk to discuss this, my only other bug bare is the reassembly of the breech bolt to the receiver , great care has to be used in order to locate the bolt in the correct sleeve as it is all to easy to drop the bolt into the wrong port, and not so easy to retrieve. So a nice auto in general but have inferior metals been used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 I assume that you have lubricated all the moving parts as Beretta's work better when "wet". An easy way to fit the bolt is to put the trigger in last. Here's a good link http://www.shotgunworld.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?t=101242 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harnser Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 Iron horse . I to have the same model . What you are seeing are profile marks on the moving parts .The high spots are wearing in and this is quite normal . You dont need to be worried at this stage ,just let the gun shoot its self in . If there is a problem with wear and tear (which i very much doubt ) then you have a 3 year warrenty . Harnser . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironhorse Posted January 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the info Harnser. In answer to the other question yes I do oil and use gun grease on moving parts. Oh and thanks for the link Edited January 25, 2009 by ironhorse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironhorse Posted January 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 I do understand that there will be wear on any auto, my first auto was a berretta and I’m sure it didn’t have this amount of wear after so few shots, I followed that with a Browning gold now the Ulrika I also have a Hatsan in my collection, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunboot Posted January 25, 2009 Report Share Posted January 25, 2009 I have 2 391's one 12g and one 20g the 12g has had at least 50 carts a week through it every week for the last 5 years and and has only very minor wear marks on it! the 20 not used so much is like new. They are good reliable auto's! Sid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironhorse Posted January 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Thanks for the reply Sid, think what I'll do is take a pick of the parts and upload so you can see what I mean. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter-peter Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) My mark 1 urika was marked when i bought it second hand last year. I put over 15,000 carts in 12 months through it and it never had a problem dont worry they just keep going. as for replacing the bolt after cleaning. enter the rod into the cup at the rear and slightly turn the block clockwise, it will go straight in, it needs a bit of practice.
