I bought the 12g CZ Bobwhite G2 back in February and the build quality is quite good. It balances well and feels "right". It was a little stiff on opening when brand new. Only negatives are it is a bit too light for multiple rounds of skeet and it doesn't like Federal primers, the soft primers seem to prevent the firing pins from retracting back inside the receiver. This happens about 2 or 3 times in a round of skeet, so it isn't every time. This has NOT occurred with any other brands of shotgun shells.
I have become addicted to English hammered shotguns to the detriment of my wallet.

Chantry,
I have issues with Federal primers (and only Federals) in my Greener. Punches through about 30-40% of them (1 oz trap loads).

As a person who reloads you learn which primers or hulls to avoid. Same thing with factory but sometimes you have less cheap choices. Hunting I always figure
Shells as the least expensive part of my trip. So I just buy the best and dont worry about it.

Wow, they did a great with that Brent. I'll have to look to see if can get that on my iTunes. At the risk of waxing nostalgic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXldafIl5DQThis is one of the best scenes ever put to film. Why? Because they needn't say a word. The score conveys everything.
