+1 Fabarm, very nice to shoot without the bullshit price tag.

as has been said, fit is king so try and have a play with whatever you get. there was a time i shot 100+ bunnys from a truck every week and I thought I was getting hot shiy with the shotgun but once someone fitted me my avarage rounds per kill dropped.maybe even more important with a semi as the follow up shots can be so fast so natral pointing helps them out even more than the first round imho.
my vote would be to look for a second hand versamax, I bought the "tactical"(damn I hate that word) 22" verson for 3gun I liked it so much I ended up selling my benali bird gun to buy a second full length cammo versamax secondhand

Go with a Benelli if you can find a second hand one that's in good nick.
But I tried out one of these the other day and we'll year near YEAR

Bloody awesome fun!
I'd get it in 20bore though![]()
having owned several semi 12's over the years i am sticking with my fabarm, softest shooting 12 i ever tried
My versamax had been fine I was prepared to spend up to 4000 when I went shopping for one the Remington fitted and pointed the best and was one of the cheaper ones as well
+1 for Fabarm XLS Never any feeding issues unlike my 1187 (which I sold)
Pietta's are also very robust for high output shotty's and you can sometimes find them at a reasonable price around the place.
Owned a Fabarm, yes nice and my choice for the gas guns. Owning a Benelli..... Only regret is: I didn't buy it sooner! There is also a reason why the M2 is the 3 gun shotgun of choice......
How much do you want to spend Andy and do you mind a bit of recoil or would you prefer somthing softer than the pump you sold?

Thanks, never even looked at that.![]()
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Ive had a 2hd hand escort12g(hatsan)for nearly 10yrs now and the couple of faults ive struck have been easily remedied in my shed. a lot of my shooting cobbers have gone hi priced ities and spent more on their pet gunsmith ,than ive drunk in piss!and i love my piss
!gadgetman and GSPfollower will attest to my old girl.
me -find a gun that fits you .that you feel comfotable with ,and even if its second hand -give it a trial.
as for shotgun gods -yep seen a few but most believed they could push shit through a straw with their personalities! a couple i respect -they advise but dont badger!
The horse has bolted.
I have a second hand Remington Versamax Tactical, already thrown 350 rounds of all sorts or rounds through in the short time I have owned it and I mean only a few months. Not a single flaw it will shoot what ever I put in it and will shoot as fast as your finger can pull the trigger
I to eventually will be looking at a semi auto. I was looking at a franchi affinity. Anyone have any experience with them? Benneli inertia driven.
