    Hi guys. I am thinking of changing my betinsolli o/u. Wondering should i go for another o/u or a semi auto. i think the extra shot would be handy. do quite alot of pigeon shooting and waterfowling. go on the odd days pheasant shooting and a couple of us shoot a few clays now and again, just to keep the eye in. ANY ADVICE??
    :confused::confused::confused:

    well iv a beretta391 semi for the last two years and after buying the beretta silver pigeon1 u/o, i still prefer the 391 at ducks cocks and clays and the extra shot if horrid handy, rapid gun by far ahead, now thats my opinion some people are different, saying that iv no fault with the other gun.....

    go for the auto, i use a beretta a400 and love it. I recently sold my beretta 686 o/u for the new benelli vinci auto.

    There is nothing worse than a cheap repeater....:eek:

    A good second hand beretta, Benelli or browning can be picked up for between €500 and €1000. Ian Jameson in Mount Nugent Cavan has a massive amount of second hand semis in stock in this price range.

    I bought a spotless urika 391 for €800 cash 3 years ago...

    New escort are meant to be good
