They look very nice, but be prepared to take quite a hit if you decide to move it on later if buying new, and I know you take a hit with any brand but 
Might pay to have a look at the second hand ones available with someone who's already taken the hit

I very briefly had a Pro Black, stock finish is terrible to be honest, trigger pulls not that good really and it was a stout kicker with me 
Back up from the importer is good though and factory extended chokes are only £25 each.
I lost £500 on it
I can recommend a s/hand Zoli Kronos gun, which are very well made

I have just had the exact same experience with a 20 bore Ceasar Guerini, which was bought second hand. It has been up for sale for some 12 months and I had to take a bigger hit than expected. Probably the biggest drop on ANY gun over the last 60 years. I would never touch anything outside of the top 5 makers.They look very nice, but be prepared to take quite a hit if you decide to move it on later if buying new, and I know you take a hit with any brand but

Interestingly Westley I was looking at a CG game gun, although 12g not 20, side plated with a colour case finish . It was in the same price range as a Miroku MK11 game which is a contender but I don’t like game scene guns that much . I’ve not taken the plunge yet .
If you don’t mind me asking as a percentage, not pounds , what depreciation did you take on the CG?

It's a myth that the top name guns will resale better, you need to sell them privately for that to happen, and they will have to be a few years old by then, taking in what the new price will be inflation wise.
No trade in will match what you think it's worth, they want to make something on it too remember, and under 12months and you will need to take 20% VAT off the new price anyway
But with the top named ones you may have a better chance of selling them privately, but only up to a certain price point, as people like the security of buying from a dealer when it's over their comfort range price wise.

" saying how wonderful they are .Its a £1500 pound gun,i am sure some balance and feel better than others...

What annoyed me is that the shop had three buyers wanting the gun at the same time. It would have been better for me to sell it like an auction

I have had mine for a year.
32 inch grade 5 adjustable.
I refinished the stock when I got it (lockdown).
I've added about 5 ounces of weight in the stock, to suit my balance preference.
Very nicely finished inside. Nice case, cheap chokes.
I love it, I shoot it well, got me into AA at club level.
This was a couple of months after I got it.
