I too prefer the Citori now. You're right the constant checking of the bolt is a buzz kill. My partner bought me a 28 ga silver pigeon w/ 28" barrels which is my goto quail gun. My Citori is a 20 ga with 26" barrels which i like a lot but not as well as the silver pigeon. I bought the new...

Nothing wrong with a dog in the crate. Much safer for all I believe, especially in an accident, unless of course your dog wears his seat belt.

All Monte's are 4+1. To each his own on the 2 piece receiver. I like my shotguns tight, nothing loose.

Wes owned Tomoka's Smoking JR with another gentleman I believe

I am a big fan of the Monte. I don't know why they put a 2 piece on the receiver on the Ethos. They hardly ever get dirty, so I think the 2 piece is unnecessary. I have not had my new Monte click yet. I still like my old Monte, but the click is irritating. I guess if you call walking thru...

yes, bolt needs to stay all the way forward, if it gets slightly moved back it will not fire, only click

The bolt backs off slightly and you go to shoot and it just clicks. I never had it do that for 15 years and then it did it a few times. Very frustrating when it happens. The new Benellis are supposed to not do that. My new Monte has not done it. The older ones could back off a little from...

I have had one dog throw a homemade boot in the last 3 years and I lost about $2 so no big deal. The problem was my older dog had bigger feet than the younger dog and I forgot the younger dog's boots at home.

I have a 20 year old Monte 20 and it was my go to gun forever. I never had a problem with it until about 5 years ago and then I had the click happen on several quail flushes. It is terrible when that happens on a bird, especially if you aren't seeing many birds. The new Monte and Ethos have...

I think i have posted this before, but go to youtube and search for how to boot a dog. The best way in my opinion is to make your own out of motorcycle tire tubes. They are cheap, last forever, and offer the best protection. I can boot a dog's front feet in less than 5 minutes. The "store...

I had the Ethos and sold it because I did not like the 2 piece on the receiver-it was loose, it was 20ga. I sold it and bought the new Monte in 12 ga for the Chukar hills-a little more power. Prefer O/U, but climbing after Chukar it is good to have at least 3 shells and more knock down power...

Cuss words and empty shells…..
