Recently I have been looking for a Beretta White Onyx or Silver Pigeon for consideration as my trap gun. Until now all the local gun stores would be glad to order that shotgun for me, but they failed to carry any in stock. I like to handle and hold anything I plan to buy at that price. I am just funny like that I guess.
Thursday the weather was sunny and the humidity was down. I headed out on my motorcycle for a nice 60 mile cruise to a gun store south of here I had been told about. The nice guys there opened the display case and brought out both the White Onyx for $2000 and the Silver Pigeon at $2800 for my consideration.
The White Onyx had the less glossy satin like finish on it with nice wood. The Silver Pigeon had really nice engraving and nicer wood with the glossy finish. Both were very stiff on lockup, much more than I expected. I suppose they will loosen a bit with use. I didn't take that kind of cash with me, nor could I bring one back on the motorcycle.
Could you guys direct me on price here? Are those prices within what is normal for these two shotguns? Some of the other shotguns I saw there I thought were a bit overpriced, but I have no comparisons around here for the Beretta shotguns I mentioned above.
Helpful comments appreciated.
