Plain, durable guns that are not particular about diet. 1 1/8 oz promos are punishing after about ten and I'm recoil indifferent for the most part. I saw a '64 Silver Hawk 28" m/f sell for $850 on GB last week. Beretta makes excellent guns. My gunner's jacket has never failed to keep me dry, either. Your experience might be different, contact Beretta and see what they say.
