    yes it was jamming/cycling problems. Made the change to beretta and never looked back

    ive a beretta extrema 2 and I was thinking of trading down to fund something else. I like the fusion because its a light game gun and handles well.

    My cousin had a Fusion for 3 years from new, cycled everything, he changed as he wanted to get a trap gun and his club frowned on Semi's

    My Dad has a Fusion Evolve. The speed loading feature is very handy. Basically you load up into the mag and it automatically loads up into the breech. No need to load your 1st shot in through the breech. had problems with it cycling shells when he got it first but that was due to the build up of carbon and crap in the piston. Since cleaning that have no problems. Cycles everything from 24gr trap loads up. He loves it. Would only consider changing it for the new Maxus.

    If you think so, everyone who has seen my Remington 105CTi admires it, and anyone who has ever fired one loves it ;)

    light and kicks like a pet lamb.

    But most importantly, can be fired left or right handed. Browning don't make leftanded ;)

    Why do all these threads turn into a "mine is bigger than yours thing"???
    Iv a 12 gauge yildiz and it kicks like a horse and are cheap as chips but i still got the longest bird last season and rairly need the 2nd shot.
    I say if the gun mounts well buy it, keep it clean, treat it well and it will last as long as you let it.:)

    Eh No....

    I have experience of Yildiz. They are what you pay for.
    And I'm not into measuring or weighing cocks :D

    No doubt remington are very very good tac, love them myself but like everything these days some people are just brand mad, everyone knows what they want. As regards My yildiz, your experience is bad (same as most if im honest) but mine is good, has 1800 shells through it, everything from 28g 8s to 42g mag BBs and never let me down yet. And im a pheasant man so im proud to say i love to see a big cock comin over my head:D:D

    My shotty only has a couple of hundred shells through it.
    I do very little cock measuring, been years since I was in a gunclub.

    If you did not know I am left eye'd shooter, and all my guns have to suit my shooting method.
    And I can shoot clays without causing offence as my shells go downwards
