3apantherfan Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 I need help deciding what i should get. I want a Benelli, either the Super Black Eagle II or the new Vinci! Just cant decide.
tvc184 Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 Save yourself $1,200 and buy a Remington 870 so you will have one that works all of the time and you have enough left for a lot of ammo.

txstar Posted July 23, 2009 Report Posted July 23, 2009 I agree with TVC...an expensive is nice to look at and have...but I prefer a shotgun that can get rained on, get dirty, and one that I can throw in the back of the pickup...I shoot the 870 mag and is dirty, scratched, etc. and it just keeps on shooting

I have no problems with the pricey guns. More power to the person that wants to spend extra hundreds or thousands of dollars on one. It just isn't for me. I have shot and carried Benellis and they are nice guns. I have also seen them malfunction when heavy enough shot isn't used or the gun isn't real clean. The 870 is almost 60 years old and there still is not a gun out there that will outshoot it.
bronco1 Posted July 23, 2009 Report Posted July 23, 2009 I agree with the above posts but the new Vinci is just plain ugly if you ask me. On another note the Benelli Nova Pump is a good gun, my son has been using one for about five years and it seems to be as durable as my 870.
3apantherfan Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Posted July 23, 2009 I have been using a Browning Gold Hunter for about 6 years now, and i love it! It has hardly any recoil and shoots well if you ask me! That being said i decided to Give it to my little Brother, and im just shopping around!

txstar Posted October 30, 2009 Report Posted October 30, 2009 I have had great success with a 870 mag...holds up good to mud, water, etc. and it shoots good...spend the big money on a deer rifle and even more money on a quality Luepold.
