Odd, in that I know a few that have around 200,000 rounds out of various Beretta SA’s with routine maintenance and a few easily replaced parts. Should be enough to get them off to a good start.
Had to put a new locking lug and replace a side rib on a Perazzi after around 100,000.
Know one who went over 200,000 shooting a Beretta 682 series before he did a rebuild.
I know a good SA will serve them well just starting out. In the long run, today’s SA’s are the best dollar value of all the available shotgun options. The work reliably and what does break is an easy fix.
