alexf 3 Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Hi Guys, Looking for some advice on my first shotgun, just applied for my certificate. I am looking for a o/u 12 bore mainly for clays and possibly game in the future. I have a budget of £500 max. I have been looking at the Bettinsoli Diamond. Any other suggestions or info about the Diamond would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Alex Quote Link to post
The Seeker 3,048 Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Bettinsoli are a good gun, I have a couple of mate who have bought one and rate them highly. If you don't want to spend too much and want a cheaper alternative have you considered a Lanber as a 1st gun? Quote Link to post
daz280597 4 Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 i dont look at makes when buying a gun i just pick the gun up and see how it feels if right buy it the make of the gun want make ya shoot better Quote Link to post
FightTheBan 1,147 Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 (edited) Both bettinsoli diamond and lanber sporting are good value for money guns and do the job. Personally i would go secondhand and get a nice wee browning. Thats my opinion though. I use a baikal o/u the most out my cabinet (dont laugh!), its a great wee gun and i got it for free. Would make ideal 1st gun for clays and game (i had mine at the grouse keepers day, probably the most scummy set up to be in a butt in history) lol. Just go for what fits you best and dont worry about how it looks. Edited December 1, 2009 by FightTheBan Quote Link to post
