New Trap Gun

Get the Beretta 391a. As stated before, keep it clean. Particularly the forearm cap. It will handle most of the recoil issues. For singles, you can get a shell catcher that will capture the shell in the ejection port (no pissed off shooters to your right). It is difficult to get a shell catcher for the Benelli and you have to make a small modification to the bolt handle.

When you get a few more bucks together, you can get a "Soft-Touch" stock. That will take felt recoil down to about zero. I put the Soft-Touch on my Beretta Technys and it is a joy to shoot. I have let a few others shoot the gun with the Soft-Touch and they were off to get one on their trap gun.

If you are a dedicated Benelli shooter, I think Shooter's Emporium is now making Soft-Touch for Super 90 and other models. The Benelli is a lot easier to clean than the Beretta.

Best shooter at my club has the Beretta 391 with a Soft-Touch and release trigger. Don't see him miss many birds.

I've had a Beretta A390 for quite a while now! I had Moneymaker Guncraft in Omaha put on there 5/8 high rib, set
for 90% high POI!
Had Remington 1100 and 1187's before and they are okay, but you better have a back-up cause they go down once in awhile.
That Beretta will just keep shuckin as long as you do your part cleaning it.



Have a Moneymaker on my A390 with POI 90% high, as well. Had an adjustable comb installed, and with two release trigger assemblies, its a nice combination. I carry a spare connecting rod in the shooting bag just to be safe. Like you say, just clean it once and a while. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif
