I bought my Bettinsoli Silver 12g second hand last month for clays, first gun and I think it's cracking. After reading all the advice on here, other forums and magazines I went for the best fit over make. I tried Berettas, Brownings, Lanbers and AYAs. The Bettinsoli was the best fit by far.
I would definitely go with the gun that feels the best. At first I really wanted a Beretta 687 I had found with realy well figured wood but it just felt awkward. Happy Shopping!
