Few Question about the SBEII

[Maiden38]

I am looking to purchase a new gun I am wanting to know how choke tubes come with the gun. My last question is how much kick does the gun have with new comfort tec stock when you shoot a 3.5 shell. Is there anything about the SBEII that people don't like. Thanks

There are many others here who know more about the SBE II than I, but I do shoot 3.5" shells and think that it is fine. It is much more comfortable that my old Nova, but less so than my buddy's Beretta.

The gun is light and thus kick is substantial, with or without the Comfortech stock.

When I shoot paper, I notice the kick quite a bit.

When I shoot geese or turkeys, it's of no consequence at all.

 

Some people have trouble cycling light trap loads through the SBEII. In my opinion, they have purchased the wrong gun and the problems are their own fault and not the gun's.

The SBEII is a hunter.

 

Other issues have been reported, but I don't believe their rate of occurence is any higher than complaints with other guns.

 

Some people don't hold the gun firmly against their shoulder, and the Inertia system doesn't function properly at times.

 

Others say their guns shoot high, low, left, right or whatever.

As I'm sure you're aware, some people simply don't know how to properly mount and shoot a shotgun, and blaming the gun is easier than admitting personal faults.

I think the recoil is mild with the SBE II and 3 1/2 inch shells.

 

I way 108lbs and have no problem shooting 3 1/2 inch shells all year long.

 

So you shouldn't have a problem either.

 

I have a SBE II with Comfortech, and I think it is well worth having. My bro has the SBE I without Comfortech and it has more recoil.

I own both the 1 and 2. i can not tell the difference recoil. I do not fell it hunting, but my shoulder does when I am home. I have never had a problem with either gun. The work flawlessly.

Which chokes did he get?

Was the gun new or used?

They typically come with 5 tubes.
