After attempting to buy a webley 900 .410 several times, none of which had passable QC or worked I filled up two boxes on my SGC and got very frustrated with W&S. Absolutely wouldn't touch one with yours.

It's quite strange that Beretta are moving to wards guns being more dead in the hands, the SL2 and 688 are about as non lively as it gets for a Beretta. Meanwhile the new 825 S3 and Brownng XS dark are really lively in the hands very much like the glory days of Beretta, early DT, Gold E etc...

The wadswicks are Hull Intercomp

Apparently also the list they work off shows only name, force, date acquired. So if you have the same name as another license holder they get confused.

Had both GMK reps last week, they didn't mention a new gun at all. Be a bit weird to produce a lighter a400 when the lite and ultralite already exist. They've been running down stocks of the a300, maybe it's a replacement for that, an inertia auto might make sense.

694 blacks are definitely coming. This says new platform, perhaps an SV10 replacement?

They're marked with the serial number on the tube just like a normal one says the choke system.

21 gram fibres 8s for me through full and extra full

I'd look to have lessons with Joe Neville.

Not sure where you are but I'm happy to give some in person advice in Somerset, can usually be found at Mendip SG.

Was surprised how many semi autos were in use at Eriswell today for the skeet masters, don't normally see that many at a skeet shoot, assume the slab of shells in a weekend played a part in a few decisions.

The 1301 is also quite a bit cheaper to buy!

The 400 extrema and the 1301 use the same tube, part numbers match. You can just order an fac extrema if you need one no need to swap tubes although they are available as parts and an S2 will be crimped.

Try UK gun repair in Taunton, often have stocks on the shelf.

Gloucester is cheap for practice. The regular hay baler type shoots like cannington or stawell are that cheap too.

Keep an eye on the Mendip SG socials, Avon and Somerset FEOs do a semi-regular q&a evening on a Thursday night, may be worth popping up to ask about progress.

I enquired with GMK about a demo one and was essentially told 'sorry not available for months' think there's only one and a lot of people won't order them for stock until they've tried one. Even the GMK rep didn't have one to look at.

For sporting practice Mendip is good and has the delayed solo shooting settings if required. Coombe farm host some casual shoots on a Tuesday night, non competitive 50 birder type setup but no refs or delay system so you do need to go with a shooting buddy.

I usually ask people who come into the shop with new tickets how long they've waited. It appears anyone who is an easy decision i.e. club members with normal jobs who have lived in the area a long time are waiting about 6 months for shotgun/fac.

Used to arrange it through the gun shop I worked in previously, circa £200 for an action, retail.
