Is the 1012 the best Inertia Shotgun under $1000?

  • Absolutely!

  • No, the Weatherby Element is better

  • No, the Stoeger M3000 is better

I finally got around to reviewing the CZ 1012. With a MSRP starting at $645, the CZ 1012 is intriguing. Could this be the best inertia shotgun under $1000? I would love to feature the 1012 in a Shotgun Showdown. What shotgun would you like to see it go up against?

 
This was posted under "shotgun opinions" where folks can share their opinions on shotguns. Best I can tell, I made a video that shares my opinion on this shotgun and I am engaging others to share their thoughts about this gun so that anyone looking at the gun has good info. Yes, I make videos on shotguns, does that disqualify me from sharing my thoughts on shotguns? I don't need or want my own forum. Not sure why you are so concerned with a guy that shoots a lof of different shotguns sharing a video review of a shotgun. As far as putting dollars in my pocket, There is a chance I could make a dollar, maybe two if this video is watched a lot. Obvoisly not doing it to put dollars in my pocket. Wishing you a great day!
 
IDK; I think the Element/Neo is pretty good, but one of the vendors at The Grand has an Impala Plus Emerald (grey cerakote/walnut) in their cheap hunting gun rack, and it felt and looked very good for $500.
 
Can’t the Franchi Affinity 3 be purchased for around $800? My experience with inertia guns are limited to Benelli, Franchi, and a few rounds through a Weatherby Element and a Retay Masai Mara.

I’m a gas gun guy, but I’d purchase an Affinity 3 over any of the other inertia guns I mentioned.

I have seen the Benelli Montefeltro for $999.00 in synthetic stock/forearm model.
 
Look into 'Retay'...way affordable and mine has been solid for several seasons.

I thought Benelli had the hold on short recoil operations. I looked into Retay and then looked at a couple hands on. It's the real deal. It wasn't an affordability issue for me, as such. But after inspecting the Retay I figured why waste money.

take a good look.
