beretta urika synthetic

[Mrg 8]

Fancy a new semi auto and wondered if anyone can advise me on al391 idols synthetic ?

al391 is a cracking gun. Ive had one for years - must be 10 years i reckon. They are easy to strip down and service - just requiring a clean up of the piston every 6 months. I used to put 500 cartridges through mine every weekend and never had any problems at all. Think ive only ever had 3 jams in my life with this gun. It will cycle very light 21g clay loads upto anything bigger without any problems.

 

Mines the 30" one, and I find I can get on targets very quick with it. Minimum recoil with a 28g load, and with anything lighter you really cant feel much recoil at all.

 

Price wise, they hold their value incredibly well if you buy 2nd hand. Mines still worth not far off what I paid for it after all these years. Build quality they feel very solid, ive had no rusting or pitting on the barrels and all in all im very happy with it.

 

It should come with a plastic case / box for it, along with 5 chokes, a choke key, instructions and a small bottle of gun lube. It also comes with spacers which you can use to put between the action and stock to adjust the cast, and 2 different butt pads depending on what length you like.

 

Mines not the synthetic one, its the wooden one, but I cant see there being much difference.

 

Even though I love mine, and most people do, Id definately recommend you try one ouf first before forking out any cash - the same as any gun really. What may suit others, may not suit you!
