Benelli Ultra Light 20 GA?? - 08/16/13
Guys:
I have a BUL 12. Bot it for long slogs Out West and late season grouse here in Michigan. Decent, tho not ideal, for informal target games too. LUV that BUL 12. Nolo problemo ever.
Just sold a gun I was not using and now have some gun money rattling around. Intrigued by the BUL 20. A few guys at the club have them. Must be selling, my local Benelli dealer has had them on BO for months. Plenty of 12s around but no 20s.
The Franchi 48 AL 20 was the lightest 20 Ga auto for many years. Great gun but the safety is not reversible to LH. No LH safety available from Franchi or anybody else either. I'm a lefty and have struggled under this impediment with both shotguns and rifles for many years. The BUL safety is excellent, available for either RH or LH.
Anybody have a BUL 20? Just how light is too light? Thoughts? Thanks.
