BETTINSOLI 12G OVER AND UNDER NONE EJECTOR SHOTGUN.

12G Double Trigger Over and Under Shotgun from Bettinsoli in Italy.

A NONE EJECTOR…….WOW! Quite WHY everyone thinks they want or needs one confuses me.

Sat in a hide? Generally you set it up with a good background of a nice thick Holly or Hawthorne bush. Have a ‘red letter’ day and go through several boxes of cartridges. Get your 100 plus birds. FANTASTIC! A GREAT DAY! WELL DONE YOU! Then spend the next two hours trying to pick your cartridge cases up that have been ejecting so beautifully. ….Straight into that thick SPIKEY bush that hid you so well. Go home looking like you went three 10 minute rounds with two wildcats in a cloth sack. (4 or 2 legged variety)!                                                                                                                                           A day on a driven shoot? Are you lucky enough to have that many birds coming over AND someone to gather up your mess after each drive? If so then an ejector MIGHT be justified. On walked up they are nothing more than a distraction!

Even shooting clays the vast majority of people call pull. They mount the gun. They take their shots. THEN they put their hand over the action as it breaks to stop the ejectors ejecting the spent cases! Pull the cases out and drop them into a bin or pocket.

THE GUN.

Just basic straight forward and well-made. 12g Over and Under Double Trigger Box Lock None Ejector Shotgun. 28” (710mm) Fixed Choke barrels at ½ and Full restrictions. Standard 2 ¾” (70mm) chambers.

IDEAL for anyone like me who usually prefers a standard double trigger side by side. Now and again the option of something slightly heavier for clays or even a heavier load does happen. The trouble for me was always forgetting to drop back onto the second trigger after using a single trigger gun. With a double trigger over and under its easy to swap back.

Alternatively just a good inexpensive gun for anyone on a budget.

The stock has a Good Strong Straight Grained 14 5/8” (372mm) pull bringing the overall length to 45” (1143mm). Weight tips in at 7 Lbs 1 oz (3.212 Kg). It is just about straight for cast so this will hopefully easily shoot from either shoulder. The action itself is profusely covered with scroll engraving everywhere and has a ‘bright’ finish.
