Blaser F3 SuperSport DTS 12ga/32". Tried it out on 50 sporting clays, 50 wobble trap and 25 regular 16 yard trap targets. The gun was set up to shoot a flat 50/50 pattern. I can't believe how easy this gun shot, even weighing in at well over 9 pounds. The site picture was automatic and it evaporated clays. True high quality German engineering, reminded me of a new 911 Porsche Carrera S. I love my Brownings, but this is in another league. There is no doubt, I gotta' have this gun!!!

If you gotta, then you gotta.

Very nice,I can't remember was this on your original dream list of makes to check into?

I see Roberts sticker in the picture see if he'll let you try it out for a couple more months to make sure you like it.

Ahhh… now it seems you understand -- many never do.

Yep, Pax is good people.

Amazing how sometimes a high-end gun CAN make a difference in your shooting experience.

There IS a reason why serious folks shoot what they do.............you're hooked now...............

1ozLoad, you are spot on my friend! I did post this gun back a month or two ago, but after using it today, I'm convinced of the difference between really good guns and great guns...

You're right - there is very little, if anything, not to like on the Blasers....

If I wanted another gun ....they would be on my short list ...along with Kolar and Krieghoff. ( I'm not a Perazzi fan / too narrow in the throat area of the stock for my big paws...) ...but they should probably be on the list too / for a discernable person such as yourself....

I'm more of a Lexus guy / not a Porsche guy ...( I need a little more shoulder room / and a nice cushy ride ...for my "wide frame" ...).

You call it a loaner but the dealer calls it "BAIT"...

SOLD BAIT!!!

Sounds like it was a great move on his part!

Every Blaser I've shot, I've coveted. Fine guns, great triggers.....

PJR · July 20, 2011, 02:49 PM

If the Blaser had been on the market when I bought my P-gun I might well have made a different choice. Great gun.
