texas skeeter Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 Thanks Koala Bear!! i see they are not actually marked Benelli. so i guess Benelli just owns that brand?? and are the 2k-ish models decent SG's across the board??

Novaking Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Holy cow Skeeter, If I ate baked beans all day, S$%^ it out and put a Benelli sticker on it, you'd have to have the first one I sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoratioDUKEz Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 Benelli only makes semi-auto's and a couple rifles. If you want a sweet o/u I would look at Browning, I have 2 o/u brownings...a citori and a cynergy, and they are nice partners in crime for my benelli supersport. Also Browning is an American company, which seems up your alley. The founder, John Browning, invented like every single shotgun innovation ever, pump, lever action, gas operated...before him there were just like blunderbusses or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 The Veloce is not available in 12 ga. It is, of course, a Franchi. Benelli doesn't own Franchi. Beretta Holdings Group owns Benelli, Franchi, Uberti, Burris, Stoeger, and some of Browning. The Dick's Benelli Diamond is a scaled back version of the Franchi O/U based most likely on the Alcione design. I have owned a Veloce, and it was a great little gun. Franchi quality is very good on their O/U's, but I think I would have to consider a Beretta, If I were to buy another Italian double.

tucker301 Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 If you are referring to matching the engraving on your new fancy SBE, then a Franchi would most likely be the best solution. I would imagine that the two companies share engraving patterns and designs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
