  • My new TOY!!!

    Hey guys, I just bought my first ever shotgun last Thursday. I was choosing between the following shotguns...

    • Benelli Super Black Eagle II
    • Beretta Xtrema2
    • Browning Maxus/Gold
    • Winchester SX3




    So, i went to our local gun shop and asked to see the following firearms. I looked at, held aimed and swung with all 4 firearms, all 4 with pros and cons. I wont go into details on each one, but the plastic on the benelli to me felt and seemed somewhat cheap and really shiny. The Beretta didn't pull up, aim or swing quite right for me, the browning didn't come in a camo pattern and the Winchester i didnt really care for at all.

    So i was down to Benelli SBE II, Beretta Xtrema2 and Browning Maxus. Went through the paces on those 3 again, and came to my conclusion.

    Heres pics of what i decided on....

            I think it depends on the application. In a police utilization, a firearm can easily become a weapon.

            For instance, if I use my DA polisher to instill holograms on a deadbeat's car for non-payment, the DA goes from correction tool to weapon...

              Congrats! When I used to hunt and target shoot, my favorite guns were Browning. I loved my Browning A-Bolt Medallion 7mm Mag, and I kick myself daily that I sold it....

                    I'd be more anal about it's a firearm OR weapon not a toy...

                    Browning makes good munitions
                    If a tree falls in the forest and there's nobody there to record the event, how can you be certain that there was a tree or even a forest to begin with?

                          well, i shot just short of 50 rounds through it tonight to begin breaking it in.....shot flawlessly, ejected all shells flawlessly and was basically perfect. Recoil pad was amazing, had nearly ZERO kick/lift!!!
