Thinking about a Beretta Urika 2.

Seen some in Mitchell, South Dakota, have yet to hold one and get the feel of it, but looks nice. Hopefully I'll get a chance to shoulder the Urika 2.

You were at the Cabela's store weren't ya?
Did you see the Corn Palace also?

I have a 391 Urika 20 gauge, I like the looks of the Urika 2 better with the scrollwork and gold inlay. I have thought about trading mine in but it woudl cost half what the new one woudl cost anyway.
I have not had a problem with my Urika 20, it is a good gun that you can pack comfortably all day and I can put 300 shells through mine on a clay pigeons course and my shoulder doesn't feel it. It has a good action on it and it jst fits me right.

Downsides are it is not as easy to operate as a Remingotn 1100, mainly what I am talking about (Benneli's have this too) is that you have to trip a shell out of the tube to unload and whenever you slide the action back it doesn't automatically lock like an 1100 does. If Beretta and Benellis would auto lock and auto trip a shell out you could save about 5-6 motions in the unloading process.

All in all it is a great gun and you won't go wrong.
