Gun Selections


HarvDog

Recommended Posts

I am entering a contest where the grand prize is a selection of 17 guns of my choice encompassing rifles, shotguns, pistols, revolvers, and black powder. I have made my selections but wanted to get some feedback before I submit so I am posting in the each of the Guns & Ammo forums.

For reference, I currently own a Remington 870 12gauge pump shotgun, Traditions Sidelock 50cal black powder rifle, a Ruger GP161 357 magnum revolver, and a Springfield Armory XD SC 40S&W.

Below are the selections with my choices in bold.

Shotguns:

Benelli Super Black Eagle II Auot in 12gauge

Beretta 686 Onyx O/U in 12 gauge

Beretta AL391 Urika Auto in 20 gauge

Browning Gold Sporting Clays in 12 gauge

Browning BPS Pump in 10 gauge

Ithaca 37 Deluxe Pump in 16 gauge

Mossberg 835 Ulti-Mag Camo in 12 gauge

Remington 870 Wingmaster in 16 gauge

Remington 1100 Classic Trap in 12 gauge

Ruger Red Label O/U in 12 gauge

Stoeger Side-by-Side Coach Gun in 12 gauge

Winchester 94210 Lever in .410

No offence Harvdog, but I can't imagine picking a wingmaster, although it's a very good gun, over the super black eagle. I've got a buddy with one of those, and it is by far the best shotgun I've ever shot, hands down.

None taken! That's exactly why I made these posts. I wanted to get some feedback.

Hey bud. Good hearing from you. I was actually hoping you would catch these post and give some feedback and your selections.

My only question regarding your choices is:

You would select the "Beretta 686 Onyx O/U in 12 gauge" over the "Ruger Red Label O/U in 12 gauge"?

I don't know much about O/U shotguns so I'd like to get your thoughts.

Re: Gun Selections

The Beretta will last a lot longer than the Ruger will. Its a much stronger gun overall. Look at the competition guys, you see a lot of Beretta guns. You don't see but a couple Rugers. There is a reason for that.
