Has anyone had much experience with Poli shotguns? Especially the hammer guns?
Any problems?

No experiences with the hammerguns, but I had a nice hammerless 16, very light. Sold it to a friend. I think you'd need a crowbar to pry it away from him. No problems at all.

A friend of mine just bought a Poli sporting clays guns. Long term verdict not in, short term verdict - he's absolutely in love with the gun.

I also have a sporting clays gun (Opal Sporting) that I purchased used after posting a similar question on this site. I am extremely pleased with the gun and shoot it very well. Although it was custom built for someone else, it feels like it was fit to me.
The only minor problems that I have had were the triggers were a little heavy (now a crisp 3 - ¼ lbs on each side) and one of the ejector rods was bent somewhere in the past. The gun has great feel and works on a clays course at least as well as a target grade O/U.
I have run at least 3000 rounds through the gun in about 6 months with absolutely no problems. Overall a great gun and I believe they are very well built for the money.

I custom ordered a Poli Upland Extra back in 2002 when Cole Gunsmithing was importing them. The gun was made exactly to my specifications, and I absolutely love the gun. No problems whatsoever, and I've put many a round through the gun.

I have no experience with the hammerguns. However, the hammerguns are one of their higher grade guns, so it's likely to be a good gun.
