Had a first year Red Label. It looked nice, carried well (hell, I was in my 20s, I thought a Garand carried well) but, grew to sure not liking that gun. It weighed almost as much as the other O/U in the stable, a Beretta Silver Snipe 12 gauge. I hated the safety, it would drift to the center position while hunting, and you couldn’t get it off.
Dumped it.
I owned some Ruger stock for a while. Much like the guns, lackluster, and I dumped that, too.
The latest Red Label? Look up “lackluster” in the dictionary and there will probably be a picture of that gun. But, the good news is used Beretta prices have never looked better.
YMMV.
Best,
Ted
