Absolutely right! Very good point indeed!

The argument for a second 690 Field is starting to look very practical and appealing! 🙄

Your reasons are well-founded. My wife always asks if I use the GPS collar...I dare not ever say no.

I use an Alpha 100 on my golden retriever. It's overkill, but the "tone" feature allows me to "tack" the dog as she hunts. She and I have a language with it. It allows communication without me having to call to her or use a whistle. It's also a couple of hundred dollars worth of peace of mind...

Breaking a pool cue over my knee when it doesn't perform is a lot more satisfying than breaking an Italian steelium shotgun over my knee. That would just hurt...and I know better.

Ha ha! Touche` sir! More accurately, when I do miss with the Beretta I don't blame the gun! "...only a bad workman blames his tools...." might be appropriate here!

No joke, this ordeal has had me looking at 693's with that very idea in mind. Unfortunately (or, "fortunately" if you were to ask my savings account) the 28-inchers have been hard to come by.

I was in the Beretta Gallery in Dallas last month, just to check the place out. I'd never been in one. The guys in the gunroom were very welcoming to questions and perusing. I asked one of them why Beretta wasn't in the 16 gauge market, and he said "I don't know, but you should just stand by...

Thanks! Glad to have found the forum and that there is a showing of goldens here.

My first day on the forum and I already know I'm going to like it here. This would be my choice too!

Hello Everyone. Just joined from the Palouse (Southeastern Washington State) Just starting my second year of upland hunting, along with my 3 1/2-year-old Golden Retriever. The birds this year on the Palouse are great it seems, for a rookie like myself with a young dog we've had no trouble...
