While back I decided to get an O/U for sporting clays. I’m current using a Fabarm XLR5LR. I was going to look at ‘B’ guns (687, 694, and 725), Fabarm Elos N2 and a CG Summit Sporting. A little over a week ago I was able to demo the N2 and the Summit at Orvis Hill Country, Blue Ridge Summit, PA. For me the Summit was the clear winner.

Today I took a day trip to Joe Etchen Guns so I could handle the Beretta and Browning models I was considering. I quickly eliminated the 694 and the 725. The Joel Etchen Signature 687 was in the running but the Summit, for me, won out.

A BIG shout out and many thanks to Joel Etchen and his staff. Such a pleasurable experience. I had BT-99 I was no longer using and Joel offered me a very attractive trade. Couple that with Joel’s extremely competitive pricing and now I’m a new Summit owner.

Congrats on the new gun.

What made the Summit stand out over the B-Guns? What's the difference?

Not wanting to get into a debate, but I'm only a couple years into the sport and wonder what comes after my current 725, which I am very happy with

What made the Summit my choice was that it just felt better. I can't really quantify it, but mounting the gun was 'better'. Initial line of sight down the rib was better, with the 687 a very close second. Left hand felt better on the forearm. For me the Summit was just a more comfortable gun overall. Not that these were the deciding factors, but the wood on the Summit was nicer, and the decoration/embellishment of the receiver was nicer than the 694 and 725, with the 687 being fancier than the Summit. Maybe I had a preset bias toward the Summit since I shot it, but if any one of the other guns would have felt better I would have chosen one of them.

Have one in 12/30. Very nice gun

I had a Beretta 682 with a trigger group that rattled and the recoil beat me to death

Sold and purchased Summit - what a difference. Superior fit and finish and recoil largely mitigated, the beretta had more field stock dimensions. They may have resolved that with the 684

I do find myself shooting my A400 more due to should problems but the CGs fit everything I was looking for with great customer service to boot for a quality mid range OU

If you ever need service you will have another reason to brag about your decision. IME, Browning and Beretta are light years behind CG. Good choice.

X2. I had an excellent experience with CG customer service the one time I needed to use them.
