12g Franchi Harrier O/U

[MrUniverse 0]

Hello Gents,

 

Has anyone got any experience with a 12g Franchi Harrier? A friend has just been granted his SGC and was considering one for his first shotgun. I said id do some research and consult The Hunting Life Forums.

 

He wishes to use it for both clay and game and wants to be able to use 3'' Magnums (fox control etc)

 

im sure ive seen some for around £600-£700 new

 

any info would be appreciated.

 

Cheers Lads

They're good guns, do the job but do tend to loose value quite quickly. Personally if I was after a new gun for both clays and game I'd go for a Lanber Sporter. I'd by far rather go second hand and get a Miroku, pound for pound they can't be beaten and they hold their value much better.

Bur most important of all, get your mate off to a clay club and get trying different guns, most members at clay clubs are happy to let you try their gun and are a wealth of knowledge.

Gun fit is essential, as I keep saying, if your gun don't fit you aint gonna hit.

Cheers for that [bANNED TEXT], ive been swamped with reccomendations on Miroku shotguns especially the MK70! I fancy one myself!

 

Hey, ive another motto for ya....''If you want to do the biz...shoot where its going not where it is''.
