been perusing the racks for a bit looking for the shotgun...
i'm looking for a light 20 gauge for pheasant-whacking. today, i stumbled across a franchi 720 - a gun that i have neither heard of or seen before. the gun feels light and shoulders very nicely - far better than either the berettas or benellis i checked, so i thought i'd solicit opinions on the thing.
it must be light, 20 gauge 26" barrels, and a reliable autoloader, and must be available out the door for under $1000. weight is the biggest object here.
any input on the franchi? their website isn't real helpful (eg, what is a max-4 stock, etc)...
