if you have up to £400 to spend i would consider some of the mulit choke sporters, they are more flexible than a fixed side by side, this is just my opinion i never really got on with side by sides and always preferred o/u. For £400 you should find a good number of 2nd hand guns.

400 squids should get you better than a baikal. but you may not to need to do that. Start again and gethe best gun hzt fits you, you could be quids in. have to add my first shotty was a baikal. nothing wrong threr but youseem o have few pennies to spend

hi bud don't go and spend £400 if you can get a good tight Baikal there good we guns and a gun dealer friend Sade are very sought after at the moment, its the man behind the gun that matters so all the best.

thanks for the replys lads, a went to the clay pigeon shooting in ayrshire on sunday. thats where a seen the baikel, it was a side by side 12bore and it was a cracking gun. it was only 125 quid. they had some realy good guns and reasonable prices. its a side by side a realy want. what do yous think is a good side side

the problem with getting the gun that fits you best is you sometimes end up spending more lol. i got my first shotty the other day same budget as you but i ended up spending £500 (it was meant to be £600 but i was stubborn) on a perfectly fitting, professionaly reconditioned, fixed choke, over under berretta.

 

its so gorgeous, i feel guilty using it. not that it stopped me being out all day today trying desperately to find some woodies.
