Felt recoil has nothing to do w reliability. Dont get me started on browning golds. Can't compare an old sbe to a new 390 series. Gas and inertia really can't be compared in felt recoil. Gas wins everytime. Bt the reliability dept. Goes towards the inertia. Just a more simple,shorter and more direct action. Beretta on the range.. Benelli in the field. I would bet that there will be hardly any parts available for either the 400 or the Vinci this season.
