New Beretta AX800

It's likely the only Beretta semi auto field gun that could actually be adjusted to fit me, but I will stick with my old Maxus that cost me less than half as much.
 
Picked up a 12 gauge Beretta A300 Ultima from Bass Pro last night 10% off for $1200.00 plus tax. Have one in 20 gauge and great no frills gun. Can’t justify 3K for an 800.

I had a chance to try out another members A800 today at a stand at sporting clays. I liked it. Very soft shooting without the kickoff stock wiggle. It shouldered very nicely and felt nice swinging it. The narrower fore end feels very nice, with a grippy texture. Oversized loading port and bolt release were nice.
Hopefully I'll get a chance to put a few more rounds through it.
 
Handled one today at the LGS. Looks aside, it feels noticeably trimmer than the a400 and handles accordingly. I certainly won't be replacing the SBE or Maxus, but my hunting partner is springing for one so we'll see how it does next season. Really wish Beretta had toned it down a little though.
