beretta 390 ?

I'm thinking about picking up one of those wal-mart 390 berettas. It's going to be for trap shooting. What do you guys think? They are going for 520$ in n.h.

Buy it

The most reliable, softest shooting gas gun on the market. This particular model (A390 with synthetic stock) is a perfect gun for hunting and recreational clay shooting.

Its a bargain. I bought one last year. Shot skeet all summer with it and liked it so much I used it for pheasant and ducks/geese this fall to the exclusion of several other favorite shotguns.

They come with a synthetic stock, a 28" bbl and a modified choke in my neck of the woods.

My Wally 390 came with 3 chokes. Stock is shim adjustable but the shims are not included (or needed in my case.)

Bought mine last spring and love it. Shot trap and ducks last year and for me it's perfect. Well...about as perfect as I could ask for. I highly recommend it.

My 390 from wal-mart came in black syntheic stock and 3 chock tubes also.

I wanted the swivels for it so I could use a carrying sling for turkey hunting.I called beretta and they sent me the swivels for it at no charge.

By the way, killed my 1st turkey with it last spring.I really love this shotgun.
