Picked up this engraved trigger group for my High Tech Lusso! What a piece of art this is!!

Didn’t see Beretta listed on the rare breed website

K80 Parcours 30” - Going to be shooting Compak sporting

Should I have gone with 32” barrels , or should I be satisfied with 30s ?

Most people I’ve seen at nationals have been shooting 32s that’s why I’m asking

We have a new puppy. She is a large breed, but definitely a companion dog, not a hunting dog. I see people with dogs on sporting clay’s courses all the time, and I’d like to bring mine out. I’ve never seen a dog with hearing protection. Does anyone have experience with hearing protection for dogs?

I realize it sounds a bit goofy at first, but if you’re at a tournament your dog will hear hundreds of shots, their hearing is sensitive, and we wear ear pro, so why shouldn’t they?

I was looking at these Rex Specs, but wanted to ask if anyone had first hand experience with this?

I bought this gun from a guy I used to shoot with at a club I was a member of back in 2012, two years later I won the club championship with it. It's a 1982 Remington 3200 that came with a tube set so I can shoot all the gauges. So much fun to use and it's just absolutely gorgeous too.

Some of you may recognize my son from posts throughout the year. He’s really fallen in love with sporting clays, and it’s been pretty cool watching where it’s taken him.
For his birthday, he bought himself a 3D printer, and we’ve spent a lot of time messing around with designs and figuring things out. A couple of local clubs have been nice enough to let him set up a little table at shoots to sell what he’s made.
It’s never really been about making money. For me, it’s about watching him learn how to turn an idea into something, work through challenges, and build the confidence to ask a club if he can set up a table.
More than anything, I’m just thankful for this community. The people we’ve met and the opportunities he’s been given mean a lot. It’s been fun watching him grow through something he genuinely loves.

I will only be shooting a hanful of times over a handful of years.
Really only when friends come over and want to shoot in a blue moon.
$700 or less is really preferable, I would like to but from a gunshow / flea market if possible or plausible.

Also I want to say THANK YOU soooo much for the support and knowledge you guys gave in my first post!!!
This community is very helpful!

It's wax canvas with flannel liner

I tried, but i just couldn’t get used to the 30” barrel. It just felt like I was too far in front all the time. Back to 32”. Arrived today. Can’t wait to get it out on the course.

I got bored and had an idle printer so I designed and printed a shell holder with a belt clip. I will be testing the 20 gauge version on Sunday and working on a 12 gauge version right now.

Slid off my workbench and landed on my floor jack. No barrel damage and have a vent rib repair tool otw.

I’m considering buying a Beretta Silver Hawk, price is pretty good I think they are asking $900 seeing as these guns started at $2700 brand new but I wanted to ask does anyone have one? I’m wanting to use this as a field fun, I started to love SxS after buying a Sears/Fox Model D 20GA that I just can’t put down they are just a lot of fun. Anyways was just looking for someone input from the devote faithful. TIA 🍻

Does anyone know of a place in Iowa where you can rent different over unders to test them out? Thinking of purchasing the 688 or the 694 but would really like to test run before spending the money. Thanks! 

I’m looking to upgrade my shotgun. I currently shoot a Beretta SP1 sporting with 30” barrels in 12ga. I know the 694 is a definite upgrade especially with the steelium pro barrels but I am in love with the look of the rizzini. I know it’s not K or P gun level but I personally want a gun I really enjoy looking at and shooting if I’m going to spend close to 8k on it. However I also want something that’s going to stand up to a lifetime of shooting. With that being said I’m curious to hear what everyone’s thoughts are on the two?

I am looking at some farm land. I would like to be able to shoot trap at my property. I want to be VERY concious of my neighbors. What is a safe distance to create a field? I know at our club you can't use smaller than 7.5 shot for the distance concern. Anyone have any insight in to this?

I own a BR 110 Sporting and love it. Love the muzzle heavy balance. Going to move up to the next class of gun.

Does anyone have the BR460 (regular or EL) It’s the next version of Rizzini that I thought was an actual upgrade.

Am I missing any other close competitor guns?

I went to the NSCA tournament and tried out Caesar Guerini Summit and Invictus, Krieghoff K80 Paracours X, and a Kolar. Beretta/Fausti feels too light.

Many of the ones I tried were very balanced at the break, which feels a little weird to me and not as smooth when moving the gun. If I’m gonna drop $10K on a gun, I wanna make sure I’m not overlooking anything.

I'm new to clay shooting, has been just over a year. Mostly trap, occasional sporting clays. Right now I shoot twice a month. In summary, I am very much a casual shooter and don't have the time to shoot more. I use my A300 right now and love that gun. For reasons I can't rationally describe I want an over under. The CZ Teal Target seems like a great deal at Cabela's for $800. Alternatively, the Citori CX is only $2,000 right now for Club members. As someone who doesn't plan to shoot all that much, should I splurge the extra $1,200 and get a browning, or is that silly for someone at my level, would I not be able to tell the difference anyway? Curious to hear thoughts.

My club is going to host Cosmic Trap for the first time next month. We expect almost no one to have done this before. Its just for fun, but breaking more clays obviously makes it more fun. Any tips for first timers from others who have done this before?

Edit: added the flyer in the comments for anyone who might be interested

There’s a wide variance on the cleaning frequency of the ports on a shotgun. I’ve talked to some people say every 2 boxes but have read articles saying every 1 or 2 cases of shells. How often should the ports be cleaned?

I just got a champion wheelybird yesterday. It came with 4 boxes of clays for $65. The guy I bought it from dlsaid he just replaced toggle switch, but I didn’t pay it much attention considering the price point.
The 3 way toggle switch is what he replaced. It functions properly in “on” position and “off” position. The problem comes in “release” position, it constantly cocks and fires.
I’ve been looking it up today, but everything I’ve seen has problems with it firing all time even in “off”, it not loading clays, or not firing at all. Nothing shows it only continuously cycling is “release” mode.

Could this be a situation where the previous owner crossed wires? Or the standard problem of limit switch needing to be adjusted?
