Anyone have any experience with the Blaser F-3 over under shotgun? I'm considering a 32in 20 gauge in full LH configuration. LH stock and top lever. JW

Minor experience: I shot a buddy's 30" 12 ga and it was a very very sweet swinging gun - it had that magic where it feels much lighter in the hands than the actual weight. And his gun is a lefty gun, very cool.

Shot a 32" 12 this weekend. Have to agree with Yeti on all counts. There so easy to close you can slam them shut if you not careful. I like the convenience of rebuilding. Pretty impressive.

Fabulous gun, each barrel length has the same weight as the others. Incredible engineering. A weight in the buttstock allow you to adjust balance. If I didnt have a great Renato Gamba O/U it would be my choice.

Have F3 12ga. 32" as backup to my Perazzi Mx8. Must agree with all who've commented so far, the F3 feels a pound lighter than it is due to fast "feel" between the hands. MOI is quick to get started an quick to change to change direction. Triggers are crisp right out of the box. You'll have to learn to control gun speed with the F3, well worth it as a clays gun IMHO.
