    My K80 isn’t going anywhere. Personally I think they’ve missed the mark with this gun in quite a few ways to be honest. The F1 analogy doesn’t really work with shotguns, I take your point with F1 cars and drivers, but for world champ shooters they could shoot with any gun and still win. Sticking max vertstrapon in a Williams he simply wouldn’t win, give Nick Hendricks an old browning and he can win anything, hang on a minute that’s what he already shoots 😂 Sam green, the same, etc etc.
    Great vid mate, and good to see you back. Keep the vids on point and true to your spirit and the channel will grow. 💪 🇬🇧❤️

    The Benelli 828, that’s where I have seen this gun before. I love the look of both tbh. Had the chance to handle one of these (not shoot it) and I have to say if I was spending this kind of money it would be on my shortlist, as well as a Longthorne, K80 etc.

    Great review as always, beautiful shotgun, I love the racy look. Interesting stuff about recoil, how do you defy the laws of physics? "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction " Keep em coming Lloyd you've been missed.

    • @thatgearguy
      @thatgearguy 14 дней назад +1

      Recoil feel can be changed by modifying the pressure curve. A short sharp pressure curve generates a sharp recoil feel. You can flatten the pressure curve and take the sting out of it. In the Steelium barrels this is done with very specific forcing cone geometry which produces required velocity from a tamer looking pressure curve. It can also produce more consistent pattern dependant on cartridge choice obviously. Interesting fact - the idea of tinkering with forcing cones to decrease recoil and increase pattern consistency originally occurred in Vostok shotguns many years ago. Both Browning and Miroku also used "back boring" among others. Beretta have arguably perfected it to the highest standards and can back it up with data.

    I've been eagerly awaiting seeing this gun in the flesh. Got to do so at the Game Fair and was a little disappointed. Maybe it's because I'm a lefty and the gun was right handed so no palm swell for me. Just felt weird and lock up also felt strange. So want to like this, hopefully I'll get to hold a lefty 31inch at some point.

    Compared with the Perazzi HT, how do you rate it? Because in my view, it sounds like an ugly copy of the Hi Tech (i.e., 3 inch chamber, larger forcing cones, additional weight, etc.) I would love to read your opinion.

    • @lloydyp
      @lloydyp  27 дней назад +1

      It handles very much like a HT, however as I said in the video, for an off the shelf gun, it feels like made to measure. That is high praise given I am comparing this favourably to a custom made Perazzi.

    I cant see any Beretta being worth close to £20K, they're a high production company with a mass market audience. Most folks wont see any real benefit of all the 'new name' tech. James Bradley Day shoots a 694 and he doesn't miss much, they're priced at a reasonable £4K. Brownings XS Pro £4.5K again a cracking gun with a price that matches the audience its marketed at. You would be better off buying a turkish stock for a 525 or 694 or even a MK38, as most wont need the slight margin that the additional technology would grant you (Steelium Pro X barrels etc). If i had £20K i would get an engraved K80 that has the pedigree name to match the cost. I shoot a Miroku MK38 Grade 3 which fits its price tag without the embellishment of new name tech or design.

      That makes no sense - apart from the review comment. What you call a subjective opinion may well be made by those who may well decide not to be consumers. Their opinion may be entirely valid, based on a full and detailed consideration of the gun perhaps more so than someone who has the money to waste; perhaps more money than sense. Any comment the gun is too expensive is no less valid than someone saying it's not.
