BlaserF3 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Years ago when a lot of trap shooters used Remington 1100's they used to have an adjustable tapered screw, which regulated the gas which worked the action and once you found a cartridge that you liked the gun could be regulated so that the empties just ejected gently out of the action. I rang Gunmark when I had a 303 and asked if they could do the same to my barrel, they said they could not so I did not pursue the matter. Which is rather a pity because the Beretta auto is a superb all round gun and is ideal for trap. Regarding the plate or wire suggestion for a two shot gun how are you going to fit it so the gun still works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throdgrain Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Best thing for that is a pump action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuck. Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Best thing for that is a pump action I think then it would turn from a 'Matter of etiquette' to downright snobbishness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throdgrain Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Point is, a pump action ejects much closer to the shooter than a semi auto. In fact I can quite often get the empty shell into the bin! It does make a second shot almost impossible at DTL though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuji Shooter Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 I hear a rumour that at Cpsa registered comps the rules are going to state that your auto must eject downwards Anyone that owns a Remi 105 Cti must be hoping for this one - the only way they are going to get any money for the heap they purchased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airgunalex Posted September 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 after all your advice i took the plunge and now i am the brand new owner of a berreta urika 2 i love it many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condor Posted September 8, 2009 Report Share Posted September 8, 2009 Well done, its a great gun - I wish you many happy hours shooting with it. Which model did you get? I have a Urika 2 Classic Trap along with my AL390 Lioness (stepped rib alrounder, but generally viewed as a sporter with its 28" barrel - brilliant on the DTL range though) and wouldn't swop them or sell them for any other gun - Great Choice!!!

airgunalex Posted September 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 many thanks condor I beleive its the "normal" version which must make it a sporter doesnt have a raised rib or anything suited for trap. took it out the other day and got a couple rabbits and pigeons just to try it out and it fitted like a glove ill post some pictures at a later date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COACH Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Urika 2, it may be the game/field model if it has the narrower rib but is still good for clays and tuition. Don`t forget the shims for adjustment of the stock if the sight picture is wrong, they`re very handy. :blink: Will shoot just about anything but frowned on in trap because of shells landing in the next shooters lap and also in sportrap for the same reason and of course game shooting. I like to shoot sporting/skeet and fitasc my self. Use my auto for pigeon/rough and some coaching. Edited October 13, 2009 by COACH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marley29 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Glad your loving your gun mate :blink: To stop all these trap snobs from moaning I think they should apply to change the rules of their discipline. Perhaps an extra 10 feet between stands so they are not so close to us common folk :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shoot a lot of sportrap and compac(t) with my auto and I don't get any hassle from the guys in the next cage.Maybe us sporting types are not so uptight as the trap shooters. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malkiserow Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 A couple of us from PW shoot at a local clay ground and there is no problem at all walking around with a semi (for sporting). I asked the ground safety officer about using my flag but he told me not to as it was a rifle thing "Just hold the gun upright with the open chamber facing outwards so all can see it is empty" Or put it in a slip.

As for trap shooters giving off, as a old boy with a auto told me... "well tell em to fu$k off and step back a yard when your shooting then when its there turn step back forward. Fu$king trap shooters" Ha ha, i pi$$ed my self laughing, really didnt expect that coming from a 70 odd year old ! Old boys today .... tut .... cant take em any where ! !

They are allowed to roam free because they can only shoot in one direction and aren't considered to be as much of a risk to the general public :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
