BREDA 12G SEMI AUTO SECTION ONE SHOTGUN.
An older version Breda 12g Semi-Auto Section One shotguns in excellent condition.
The barrel is 24 ½” with external multi chokes. These add between approx. ½” to 3” plus depending on choke restriction. I CAN supply a full set of brand new chokes, even ported if that ‘floats your boat’! These guns used to be THE FAVOURITE amongst Wild fowlers as well as pigeon and rough shooters. They ARE SUPERBLY reliable in any conditions. Beautifully designed and engineered, strip one down to see just how well made and solid these guns are. YES, spring recoil operation so not as ‘smooth’ to shoot as modern day gas piston systems. That said, top end Benelli options are still very similar and as such require far less cleaning / maintenance. The stock has a 14 ¼” pull, is all but straight and retains the original Breda hard plastic butt plate.
These guns also come with washers which can be swapped around to accommodate very light or very heavy loads. Another nice feature in that the safety can easily swap over for left handed use too.
Last point to make is just to say take a look at the current price of these shotguns now they are available once again in the UK. A LONG way from the budget end in semi-auto shotguns!
£299.99
THE STEEL SHOT DEBACLE?
FIRST THING: Given lead is SO dangerous, can we ask about getting every lead water main replaced? After all, ANYONE with one of those still supplying water has zero choice. LETS PUT THAT QUESTION TO HEALTH AND SAFETY EXECUTIVE AS WELL AS THE GOVERNMENT.
That is every child’s grazed knee washed out with lead infested water (direct into their blood stream. Every glass of juice. Every cup of tea or coffee, Vegetables washed and cooked in the stuff. ALL that DELICIOUS Gravy. Cloths washed in it. Then we bath in the sodding lead infested stuff!
HOW DO THEY DEFEND THIS FACT?
THEN THERE ARE more and more Non-Toxic Shot alternatives being produced. WITH near matching performances to traditional lead and close to, if not matching pressures. Take a look at Horton Gunmakers for their own entry into this debacle of modern-day shooting. APPARENTLY so lethally deadly to shooters and game eaters? How is it every old lead water main supply pipe is not getting ripped out and replaced? To my mind it’s a DISGRACE that the shooting industry did not simply ask that one simple question. NO, they saw an excuse to charge a fortune and that mainly to the detriment of the quarry. Just my opinion …..for what its worth?
Anyway, take a look for yourself:
NOW, TRY and help speed up availability. I WILL suggest that YOU pass on details to everyone you know who shoots. Then ask whoever we buy from WHY they are not DEMANDING cartridges made in this material? Basically VOTE with your WALLET.
YES, it will take a little time for everything to filter through, but patience IS a virtue. It also allows everyone who wants to keep hold of their ‘old favourite’ for the rest of their lives. Even pass it on to the next generation and hopefully beyond!
On that note I AM looking into the possibility of stocking some direct from Steve at Hortons. RING for an update and keep checking the web site.
