WABS Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Thinking of buying a used side by side with the brand name of Boito. Supposedly distributed through KMart years ago. I'd never heard of this gun maker before - anyone have any information they could share. Does anyone own one? Interested in the Pros/Cons.

WABS Posted May 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Re: Boito (Brazil) Shotguns? Picked it up on Saturday and other than being dirty as heck it looks pretty good. Cleaned it up this weekend - can't wait to get out to the range and try it out. Never owned a side-by-side before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian_Goose Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Re: Boito (Brazil) Shotguns? I love my O/U, if you have a misfire its either the shells fault or the operators . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WABS Posted May 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Re: Boito (Brazil) Shotguns? Took it to the range yesterday and shot a couple of rounds of skeet with it. What a great shooting little gun. Other than being a little stiff to open it worked like a charm. Took a little bit to get used to the double triggers and the safety. It's the first gun I've owned where the safety automatically goes on when you break open the gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimPic Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 Re: Boito (Brazil) Shotguns? I have a 12ga. SxS Boito-got it on a trade.Nice shooting,points well--fit and finish aren't all that great but overall it's a pretty decent gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted May 29, 2006 Report Share Posted May 29, 2006 Re: Boito (Brazil) Shotguns? I've got a Stoeger Uplander Special SxS in 20 ga. It's made by E.R. Amantino (Boito) in Brazil. It's not fancy.........but it's no pig either. I had been doing some trap shooting with it earlier this spring. Really started to like the way it handles. It's a good, solid little gun and when I get back to the trap range, it'll be getting the duty over any of my 12 ga. pumps or autos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
