    Hello Folks and lassies!

    I'm purchasing my first shotgun very soon! I do have a fair bit of experiance shooting bunnies and crows with a bit of clays thrown in there, So after a few weeks of looking around the one that has caught my eye is a baikel u/o spanking new, price is 600 euro!

    So people is this a good gun and a good price??
    Thank you

    Probably the best you can get for that sort of money for a new gun. Baikals are relaible no frills guns that won't win beauty contests but won't let you down either. It's in a different league than a lot of the other so called cheap guns.

    €600 is too much for a new baikal are ya mad ???

    Mate of mine got a brand new baikal o/u, slab of cartridges, timber fox cartridge belt and gun slip (package deal) for €600

    Get haggling with your dealer , if hes any good he'll come down in price. Tell him you had a look in another shop and the same gun is €150 cheaper !!

    You'd pick up a Browning Medalist for that kind of money and a quality gun.
    I've had one for 20 years and never a days trouble.
    Try this guy, he might still have it.
