Beretta

[gman]

I on the other hand however have never thrown up a Beretta O/U that felt good to me . [/QUOTE]

I on the other hand pick up an Italian gun and they all seem to feel and fit comfortably.

I'm not positive, but a friend of mine who I shoot with quite often, has a 471 in 20ga. He loves it and shoots it very well. The only issue he has had with it is the case coloring has worn off prematurely. Other than that it has been a sound gun.

[C.O.B.]

The Beretta is a solid gun, well built from a quality gunmaker who I believe has been in business longer than any other gunmaker. I shot a 687 EELL for over a decade on registered skeet and I bought the gun used from someone who also bought it used.

If you like the gun I wouldn't hesitate.

It's all about what one is used to !

I am quite sure if I had started with sphagetti guns instead of saurkraut guns my opinion would be different .

I will say however I've thrown up a couple Fabri guns that felt very nice . One was actually a tubed skeet gun and the other a bird gun .

I use an old model 409 12 gauge ,these were one of the many precursors to the 471...it's a great gun ,light & handles great and locks up like a vault even though it had been run through the wringer before I got my hands on it .These show up here for little money at times ...I picked up a 16 for my buddy in about 90% cond for $500.00 just a while back

I don't think you could go wrong with one personally .
