Weatherby break-actions are now made by Fausti Stefano. Their new autos are made in Turkey. WRT Italian shotguns, Perazzi makes nice guns. I like my Berettas.

Try shooting all of the different types and models and see, as mentioned above, which one "feels" right to you. You might try a gun club to borrow/rent these and determine which one fits. As to accessories, I have a pump in a closet - it wears a side saddle, nothing more. Too many things throw off the balance and swing dynamics and offer chances for Mr. Murphy to rear his ugly head at the wrong moment

Shotguns can't tell the difference in night and day. Only shooters can. The answer is to become a night-functional shooter, and the best way to do that is to get some low-light training. As always, there are no hardware solutions to software problems... but a white light source mounted on the shotgun can help, if the shooter knows how to run it properly. lpl

Never shoulder a shotgun unless you are in mortal danger, rock salt and beanbags are worse than useless, if the BG is armed he will surely be compelled to shoot you, if he is not, you will be sued "my client was grievously wounded by a 12 ga beanbag and will never be able to lead a normal life again." Slugs are if you dont have a neighbor within 1/2 mile, all else is buckshot. If you ARE in mortal danger use #4 buckshot in an...

should I just keep the factory sights or should I get like an EOtech? Also, where are good, convenient places to hide it for quick, simple access? Sorry for the overload of questions, I just want to get it right... "A smart man learns from his mistakes, a wise man learns from the mistakes of others."

Pistol grip shotguns are best used in video games and movies. Shotguns with stock are best used for real world purposes. rc

I'm probably not the best person to ask, not being a big Ithaca fan. There is nothing wrong with them, just not my thing. I'm right handed, and I really don't like loading through the magazine. I had three BPSs, and I still don't like it. I like throwing a shell in that open ejection port after I shoot an 870 empty. Plus I like heavy 3" loads, and being light, Ithacas tend to bite a bit. But, I do think the first...

I have a mint example of the model 12 riot gun, they were beautiful guns, craftsmanship we will not see again, because we can't afford it. Even the riot guns got beautiful wood, which today we would have to pay extra for. They did not work easilt like a Mossberg, but gave one a bank vault like feel in the action, kind of like driving an older quality Mercedes. __________________ The Islamic terrorist express; go directly to Allah, do not...

Quote: I mean is there any advantage or disadvantage to the benelli compared to the 870 or 500? Well Benelli makes a fine gun and the Super Nova is no exception. The only disadvantages I see is that there is no factory option for an extended magazine tube and price. There are aftermarket mag tubes though if you really think you need one. http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct...334&t=11082005 The price of the Super Nova is in the same...
