I've decided that I like to shoot skeet enough that I want to buy a nice O/U. My problem is that before I drop $2,000-$5,000, I would like to actually feel the gun first. But, nowhere around southern Wisconsin seems to have more than one or two in stock. Does anyone know of a gun store around southern WI that carries a lot of shotguns? I tried Gander Mountain (never to buy, only to look), but they only had about 7, 2 of which I would consider. Thanks for any help...

Star hanging out at the local skeet and trap clubs...many will let you handle their guns, some will even let you shoot a round with them. You can also wait and attend the Grand next year, you will be able to handle just about every O/U imaginable there.

Go to Kolar in Racine - locally made and a great gun for skeet shooting

It's a bit farther North, but try "Midwestern Shooters Supply" in Lomira. It's just off of Hwy. 41 (Hwy 67 exit). Ask for Brian or Mitch.

Have you considered a used Browning or Beretta? You could look on local gun boards. Private sale, you could of course look over and handle a gun before buying.
You may be able to get more gun going that way than buying new. You could check Armslist.
Hope that helps!

Cabela's--Scheel's---Bass Pro---Gander Mountain----if any of those are in your area.
Not saying they have the best prices--but probably have what you're looking for.
