Dear Beretta,
Dear Beretta,
Will you please now consider offering the following firearms :
1. Pump shotgun in 12, 20, 28, and .410. Blue and Wood, adult and youth sizes.
Simple , rugged and offer the 12 and 20 bore in combinations of longer barrel for clay shooting, hunting and shorter barrels for turkey and deer.
2. 28 gauge in 390/391 type semi-auto platform. I personally use a 28 gauge semi-auto shotgun to introduce new shooters to shotguns.
This gun is also great for those younger and of smaller stature, older, or physically limited due to recovering from detached retinas, shoulder, neck and back surgery.
3. Over & Under in a "working person's" configuration. While I appreciate the metal to wood fit Beretta is known for, the beautiful wood and deep blue, the attention to detail of Beretta Shotguns, there is a real void that needs to be filled.
Offer this gun in 20, 28 and .410. I suggest these be built on respective frame size to gauge.
This void encompasses those wanting a quality firearm, with quality control before leaving the factory. Customer Service after the purchase, and in a price point not offered currently.
Working Person's shotgun fills a void for those in legal and political jurisdictions where repeating firearms are not "friendly".
Fills a void for those that travel by land conveyance where a Over and Under shotgun is more politically correct, and easier to "take down" and "store secure" as some jurisdictions mandate.
Fills a void for a new shooter to have one gun to shoot clay games, hunt, use on farms, ranches, be it in a farm/ranch/tractor or just out checking the property.
While I have participated in sanctioned shotgun sports and used more expensive shotguns and again- I appreciate fine craftsmanship, wood and blue and pride of ownership - a very real void exists and the void is getting bigger.
4. Single shot shotguns in 20,28 and .410
Just like the Over & Under in "Working Person's" version and add the option to have these shotguns come with/ or obtain from Beretta extra barrels to shoot .22 rim-fire and center-fire cartridges. Good examples would be a Youth version with 28gauge and .22 long rifle, 28 gauge with .223, .410 with .22 rim-fire , and 20 gauge with 30-30.
Beretta, some manufacturers have forgotten the customers that made them successful. Some manufacturers are not thinking about the future , the up and coming new shooters.
Some manufacturers have not taken into account we have a "aging society" and the customers that used to could shoot what they did, no longer can due to age, and physical limits.
The geriatric wants to be able to pass forward to the up and coming shooters so many life lessons. The geriatric wants to be able to buy a firearm for a grandchild, and be able to easily carry a "Working Person's" shotgun as they walk side by side with that grandchild.
The geriatric wants to be able to enjoy an outing shooting sporting clays, skeet , trap, Five Stand, and short course trap.
Beretta, please consider these offerings.
Some firearm manufactures have forgotten the Responsible Firearm Owner. These Responsible Firearm Owners respect other firearm platforms and those that use them in other disciplines.
Responsible Firearm Owners do not have a "Us versus Them" attitude, when it comes to understanding others have rights just as they themselves do- simply called Respect.
Everyone is responsible for their words and actions, some firearm manufacturers have taught the buying public how to treat the firearm manufacturers by how they fight for Freedom, the individuals they choose to represent them in Media and how these representing them conduct themselves in everyday affairs - and how they listen to the buying customer.
Beretta, history is a great teacher. One is wise to not repeat mistakes, instead learn from mistakes and move in a forward direction.
Many mistakes have been made in the past by firearm manufacturers and another one by a competitor that has a long history of firearm manufacturing has been made to the buying public through a representative through Media recently.
Internet is a real time communication tool. It can be used to communicate both negative and positive communications.
For the business person, there are ways to tabulate how advertising dollars spent, reflects the customer's buying of products.
There is no way to tabulate the negative impact of lost customers, customer dollars and customer support through negative communications , be it word of mouth, or Internet or both.
Thank you for your time.
Respectfully,
Steve
