I've used one of these before for a pheasent shoot, they're great but not as nice looking as a few of my side x sides.

 

Shooting rocks.

Anything that holds more than 3 shells requires an FAC ticket. You would need good reason to own a 3 shot+ semi auto shotgun. Big time pest bird control for example on your farm.

 

Owning one of those though wouldnt happen in the UK!

 

Cool gun though.

Your earlier post says you have used one. What country was that in then?

i was under the impression that any live shot weapon was under the FAC act and i know all air rifles over 12ftlb require a FAC licence and any air pistol over 6ftlb needs the same :?

The UK. It was a 3 shot version of the Extrema 2. You can get them in up to 12 shot but you would need a FAC ticket.

There are two tickets.

 

SGC (Shotgun) up to 3 shot

 

and

 

FAC - Rifles, rimfires, 3 + shot shotties etc.

 

SGC's are quite easy to get. You need a clear criminal record, be of sound mind and have a secure place to keep your guns. The Police do a check on you and need to prove why you can't have one.

 

FAC's are harder to get, you need to prove your need for a ticket.

 

Safe shootings good fun. I frequently go clay and pigeon/game shooting.

There is a legal limit on the length of shotgun you can own.

 

I THINK it's 24 inches. Any shorter and you go to jail for owning an illegal firearm.

 

24 inch shotguns are very short, most are 28, 30, or 32 " in length.

Beretta's are the dogs the round ones, firearms are the only good thing to come out of italy imo they can't build anything else.

 

I have a beretta a301 semi auto (4shot) and had a beretta over and under on loan and they are beautiful weapons to shoot. The semi auto chatters through rounds like a type-writer still and it's maybe 25 years old with very little maintanence before I got it (my Da owned it before me and it got a very hard life to say the least lol)

 

Also had a wee victor saresqueta side by side on loan from my grandpa and it was a bit wicked to shoot but a lovely gun none the less.

 

I enjoy the rifle more tbh, I've got a .22 rimfire bsa thats as old as the hills but still fun :lol: If shootings done safely it's a real good past-time
