These Berettas do it out of the box unlike the pump action.

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Honestly!! You going to tell us you or anyone can do those kind of trick shots with a gun straight out of a box irrespective of what it is?????
It is the MAN not the GUN that does the shooting..So unless you are Mr Knapp dont be talking rubbish!!

You get what you pay for at that price and you get great resale on it and you be lucky to find one of these secondhand ,not like your mosberg 500 that a gun dealer wont take AFAIK

.

Two and a half grand buys you FIVE Mossberg 500 pumps that are cheap and cheerful and do the job just as well,and you dont have to worrry about damage or whatever to that fancy Bearetta.If my 400 euro Mossberg gets rusty or falls for 48 hours in a tidal salt estuary..so what??I'm down 500 euros not 2.5K if it isnt recoverd.

Anyways I'd like to see if that gun survived 36/48 hours in sea water and still worked??As would the US Coast Gaurd,USMC,Army Navy SEALS etc
As the only guns that have survived this sofar are PUMP action!:D

As for a trade in value.Ever hear of forecourt depreciation??
Buy any luxury car off a dealer and the moment it has left the lot it loses 33% value straight away!!! Same with firearms. Shoot it once it is second hand and has lost its straight purchase price .So unless you can afford to lock up 2.5k in your gunsafe and sell it as a collectors piece???....But good luck with that ladies...Ubless it is a specific custom made gun or a limited edition run,a bog standard gun wont fetch near what the purchase price was here in Ireland.



Maybe you might say its expensive but here in Leitrim us guys don't have that sort of recession. There's money in cows :D:D

SHeesh! You spendthrifts,and my ancestors hailed from that county!!!.What ever happened to hiding the dinner in the kitchen table drawer when somone called???:D Well then buy it and enjoy it!!

Its a LEVER action,not a pump!:) But still a good and fun looking design with all the inherent problems you mentioned in the pump design and more!Thats why the pump superceeded it!
