New gun

[Sam McNally]

Hi all I am going to look at two second hand guns tomorrow at the local gun shop, and just wanted two know everyone's opinions good or bad. They are a browning 725 sportier and a beretta 686E. Thanks in advance

Whichever feels best to you, ideally that means feels best during a trial, not just the shop.

Would a gun shop tend to allow a trail of second hand or any gun for that matter

Yes. Not new guns but good places, definitely used ones. Best use a shop at a ground or it's some issue to do it.

Yes, I agree with Will.  And both great guns to get started on too.

I wouldn't buy without shooting it and wouldn't buy from somewhere that wouldn't let me......

Very different guns with rather different feel. most people sit on one side of italian/japanese fence or other.

and what HDAV says.

I really liked the look of the berettas but the browning felt right to me but everyone is different, to me looks don't break clays

I can only confirm what others have said, particularly with these two guns. The Beretta and the 725 are very different in their feel (I have shot both of them)

I know what I think of these two is of no real value to you, as you really do need to use and feel which one is right for you. But I'm bound to say the 725 would get my vote over the E, all day long. But as I say, that's a personal opinion, they are both very fine guns.
