Your Waterfowl gun.

[deerslayer94]

Toying with the idea of saving a little on the side all summer and going in on a nice semi auto duck gun for next season. Currently shoot a stoeger m3000 and love it to death but... I also like guns and having lots of them lol
Question is what do you shoot and why do you like it vs others? Iv been looking into A5s,SBE11,and the a lot of beretta lines.

[DapperDan]

Sbe ii. Bc it's goes boom no matter what. And when you go to Los chanares Argentina to hunt dove and can shoot 3000 rounds a day every day and 75% of their guns to rent are benellis, it says something....

I've got a browning cynergy ou in max 5 w 28in tunes. Love it. If I got an auto I'd look at the browning a5 my buddy got one and it's a great gun too

[Msgreenga]

Benneli sbe 2 and this year I bought a berreta a 350 which has been a decent gun

[bucksnducks]

If doing a lot of walking... SBE II (its light), it kicks like a mule with heavier loads

If hunting from boat... Remington Versamax

I'm partial to gas guns cuz I grew up on 'em, Versamax is my go to
I keep both clean and dry, and neither has ever failed to cycle ever. I've had both for 5 seasons plus.

Beneli action runs better on a high round count b/c its runs cleaner

Brother has the Xtrema 2 and loves it

[bucksnducks]

My only complaint with the Benelli is that, do to a little increase in recoil (being recoil driven), you knock a little further off bead, but it's easy to get used to

[waterspiderpd27]

Beretta A300 because it fit, was cheap and has never failed yet. It has killed many, many pigs and ducks since I purchased it last January.

[dac6933]

Beretta 390 is my go to shotgun for everything. I love this gun.

[deerslayer94]

Anybody have opinions on the benelli vinci?

I have one, bought two years ago and I have been very pleased with it. One thing I do like is that it only holds three shells so I never have to worry if there is a plug or not. And take down is as easy as anything

[Duane]

SBE II, not many lefty semi-autos in 3.5" chamber

[byler11]

Browning a5 here

[stevieray54]

I go by how they feel and fit to myself.I have a SBEII it feels a bit more slimmer the my Beretta A400.Like both. Any top end gun is going or should be dependable, it just how deep your pockets and what your looking for. I hear a lot of Benelli fans like the M2 same as the SBEII just don't shoot the 31/2 shells

[stevieray54]

If you ever get down to Houston, go by Briley Barrels and check them out, they will help you to fit the gun to your body

[Quackerbox]

Been shooting Beretta (302,302a, 303 and a 390) before the other B was even born

Nothing wrong with the Stoger it's a workhorse!

[wlgorman]

I picked up a Beretta A350 Extrema last year. I use the heck out of my duck guns. I couldnt find much info on it but gave it a chance. As far as I can tell its the same exact weapon as the old Extrema 2, without rubberized grips and without kick-off. This thing is great. Light, not much kick even with 3.5", cycles smooth. Not one hiccup yet and ive def shot over a case between last season, off-season sporting clays and this season.

I have had 870, Stoeger, and Franchi's. 2 of my group shoot benelli (SBEII and Vinci) and they love them. I saw the SBE jam this year, but the guy broke it down in the field and removed about a 1/2" clump of dirt out of the action and its cycled fine.

I will say that benelli's customer service is absolutely horrendous. I sent my Franchi in last year bc of light primer strikes and failure to eject. After sending it back 3 more times (one of those times they sent my weapon to a sporting goods store in LA on the return, who were nice enough to call them and let them know). It came back the last time with a cracked stock which was not there when I sent it in, and they basically said "sorry but we've done all were willing to do", after I raised hell they sent me another stock with different camo, when I called back the lady actually hung up on me after telling me repeatedly that there is nothing more they can do for me.

That being said, I know my beretta is made by benelli and ill be dealing with the same folks if I need to use cust svc again.

[Bullseye07]

I shoot a franchi i12. Have had it over 12 years now. Love it. Never had an issue. I've run thousands of rounds through it, never had a single jam.

[fulldraw_529]

I have a winchester sx3 and love it. Have a briley choke for it, and an extended mag for the conservation season. Light gun, I hunt a lot of salt water and am finishing up my third season with it and it's held up well

Versa Max........this one time I had a Stoeger but I had to beat it against a tree because it would not cycle shells. Then I sold it in a garage sale.

Lol, I hear bad stories about the stoeger pumps, but this m3000 is an awesome gun never had any issues with it. Just would like a nice higher end gun to add to the collection and drop some birds with. Right now Im zoned in on the sbe2, beretta a350 and the vinci.

I shoot the Browning A5 now and have a Benelli SBE2 as my backup. Shot my SBE2 for years great gun. but the A5 has taken its place.

[LakeJake]

HK stamped Benelli SBE

Rumor has it the SBE3 will be released on the 16th

[DCT]

SBE II here

[paigers01]

Beretta ES-100 Pintail. It's light, affordable, inertia driven, and has very few moving parts (which makes it very easy to break down and clean).

[panhandlehunter]

I shoot a Stoeger 3500. I haven't had a single failure to feed, usually shoot 2-3 cases a year. I have no complaints other than it kicks bad, so does the SBE II.

[Axis FMJ]

I love my SBE2 and have shot all the above.

[tigerscowboy]

SBE II. Sold 2 12g shotguns to justify buying this one 2 years ago and have never regretted it.

[CastAndBlast]

Sbe 2

[Wall_Hanger]

Beretta 390 and never look back.

I'm wanting a franchi intensity. My uncle just bought one in max 5 and really likes it. Got it brand new in box to his door for $835. Hard to beat that.

SBE II for dove hunting and Beretta Xtrema 2 for duck hunting.

[Puddle Duck]

Beretta 390 for the last 15 to 20 years. Love this gun. Also shoot a Browning Gold 10 for geese and cranes.

[Walding1989]

I shoot a Browning cynergy o/u in mossy oak shadow grass blades.

[DRT]

Beretta Outlander.

[Statton48]

Franchi intensity- goes bang every time and easy to clean. Good gun on a budget.
Beretta a400- little to no recoil. Very reliable. Don't clean but once a year. Very reliable.

[BBBGP]

Sbe 2

[BIG BONE]

Beretta a400 extrema
Love that gun

[deerslayer94]

Thanks for all the responses, I definitely have some time to check them all out and decide which one

[MarkV]

I love my SBE ii.

Benelli is about to release the SBE iii from what I have seen and what I read is it is basically the child of the Vinci and the SBE ii so may want to check that out.

[bigdaddy590]

Browning Maxus. But I will get an inertia driven gun next instead of a gas.

I'll definitely keep an eye out for that!

[SFAbowhunter]

Shooting a Beretta a350 extrema. I'll be honest, it jammed the first two times I took it out. It actually jammed on the first shot I took with it. After 2 hunts with it jamming, I took it home and cleaned it. What do you know, it hasn't had a jam since then. Has been shooting great.

I had never owned a semi before the beretta. I have always shot an 870 pump, but I'm really enjoying the a350 now.

[raw10628]

Started shooting a Franchi Affinity this year and it's been a great gun for about half the cost of the Benlli guns.
