Ok, I am really enjoying my 391 Urika 2 Sporting. I have had no problems cleaning it. It is a joy to shoot.....So why the hell do I still want an O/U?

Engraving!

Seriously, though, your 391 will do everything you could possibly ever need a shotgun to do. There is no real need go upgrade.


Man, that looks sweet.
no better place than here.. no better time than now....

We should start a new thread that is just about engravings. I am sure there are a lot out there for us to share and see.

If you go to any major sporting clays shoot, you will find that the 391 is probably the single most popular gun, followed by a mix of Browning and Beretta O/Us, then followed by the high dollar Krieghoffs, Perazzis, Kolars, Blasers, etc.. There's a reason beyond cost for the 391's popularity; it's reliable, it balances well, and recoils less. It's just an easy gun to shoot.

Nice galleries of pics have been posted from last week's US Open (second biggest sporting clays shoot of the year): http://www.greengirl....com/f368120857

If you look through the pics, you'll see what people are shooting in major competition. I only flipped through quickly but I only saw one Benelli an one Remington semi-auto. All the other autos were Beretta 391s or 400s. Lots of Kreighoffs, Perazzis, Blasers, Browning O/Us, etc..

And yes, if you look closely, you'll find a pic of me ;) :D

I am pretty sure I saw you, standing there, looking at a target or something.

I have been shooting a 391 for some time and am thinking about getting the A400 for a hunting gun.  anyone have both?  Do they feel close enough that the transistion would not be an issue?


Used to shoot a bit...but it's been a while :)
