pahuntnut Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Just my opinion but to me black shotguns are butt-ugly. and the camo looks out of place on the sporting clay range. Hey Benelli, how about grey spider web or tan spider web on those syn stocks. I know they look great on a Weatherby rifle. (and if you use my idea i would like a discount lol) Quote

Renault Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Being black makes them more dangerous, haven't you seen the news? Quote
pahuntnut Posted January 15, 2010 Author Posted January 15, 2010 Being black makes them more dangerous, haven't you seen the news? yes I have and I think they look great if you are on a swat team. The painting is an option but for $1300 to $1600 should i have to? I would just like to see them with some color options instead of camo or black Quote
texas skeeter Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 being black makes them more dangerous, haven't you seen the news? oh no you di-int!! Quote

GENELEO Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) "Black" Walnut? Edited January 16, 2010 by GENELEO Quote
pahuntnut Posted January 16, 2010 Author Posted January 16, 2010 yes I love the blued with walnut and am thinking about it. Synthetic though is tougher. I was thinking more along these line like the Weatherby Mark V ultralite. Pink is definitly out. Quote
pahuntnut Posted January 16, 2010 Author Posted January 16, 2010 also I dont think you can shim the stock like you can with the synthetics Quote
VINCIshooter Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Just my opinion but to me black shotguns are butt-ugly. and the camo looks out of place on the sporting clay range. Hey Benelli, how about grey spider web or tan spider web on those syn stocks. I know they look great on a Weatherby rifle. (and if you use my idea i would like a discount lol) I halfways agree with you but my vinci is black:D but i dont like certain guns black vinci is an exeption because my dad said the camo will ware off witch it sounds like benellis stay on pretty well and camo looks allitle of at trap events so does black but it aint a fashion show, in my opinion 870s shouldnt be black any beretta shouldnt be black and certain benellis shouldnt be black. i prefer wood over anything for a upland or spesific sporting clay gun but for waterfowl its gonna get dinged up.

pahuntnut Posted January 16, 2010 Author Posted January 16, 2010 well I have i narrowed down to the Beretta 400. It has walnut with a weather protect finish, the SBE or the Vinci Quote
texas skeeter Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Just my opinion but to me black shotguns are butt-ugly. and in my opinion, the 1980 look with the brown montecarlo stock is even more ugly!! BLACK SYNTHETIC is where its at in this day in age for defensive sg's. and if your into benelli hunting guns, M1014 has SOME NICE PICS all over this board!! by the way, why the heck hasnt he posted his pics here yet!! Quote
Hookster Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 M1014 has SOME NICE PICS all over this board!! by the way, why the heck hasnt he posted his pics here yet!! OMG! Call 911!! M1014 has fallen and he can't get up! Quote
tucker301 Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Let's recap. Don't like black guns, because they're "ugly". But likes Weatherby rifles. That's all I really need to know. Quote
HOGWILD Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Weatherby has entered the Black Tactical Shotgun arena? http://www.weatherby.com/product/shotguns/pump459 Nothing shoot flatter,hits harder or is more accurate Quote
U.Hunter Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Sounds like somebody is just too d... picky. Maybe a maple stock with an apricot finish will work. Quote
texas skeeter Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 OMG! Call 911!! M1014 has fallen and he can't get up! L'dMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote
texas skeeter Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 and also, hey M1014 whats the deal with that SG and that 50" barrel/bi-pod??? goodness, why not just get a barret 50 cal?? Quote
pahuntnut Posted January 17, 2010 Author Posted January 17, 2010 Lets recap so the ones with the sensitve feeling dont get too hurt and upset. I said I think black shotguns are ugly I dont care who makes them. The synthetic color combo of the weatherby ultralite looks good. I am not talking about "black" shotguns of the assault type but sporting shotguns. So take a deep breath and relax. It is just an opinion and everybody has different tastes that is why they make things like cars and trucks in different colors. Unfortunatly, my only color choices for a SBE are camo and black. Quote
texas skeeter Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Unfortunatly, my only color choices for a SBE are camo and black. well then, since you dont like the camo or black you wont be getting an SBE any time soon will you?? its just that some here get sick and tired of people coming to this site and complaining or whining about how benelli doesnt make the gun THEY want!! and maybe if one was a little more tactful with their gun design advice, maybe just maybe benelli would make you the gun of your dreams!!

U.Hunter Posted January 17, 2010 Posted January 17, 2010 Next thing they'll want is racing stripes or fuzzy dice. Quote
