An extra grand for 3 chokes a sling and a hundred bucks worth of gunsmithing  | |||

I have 3 SBE II's. The picture does look a little different than my guns. The choke is easy to see as is the Hi-Viz sight. I am not sure what the other changes do. What differentiates this from the Vinci? | |||

the vinci is a completely diferent gun down to the barrel mounting system, all the internals are different..... I actually took one appart and was pretty impressed with the simplicity of it... other than the vincy being the ugliest gun I have ever seen, it shoots pretty good... | |||

Here are some approximate costs for the extras: Three Chokes $150 Sling $50 Fiber Optic Sight $30 Bolt Handle $50 Bolt Release Button $50 Crio Barrel $250 Tuned Trigger Group $150 Polished Inertia System $150 Lengthened & Polished Forcing Cone $150 I also agree that all Vinci and Super Vinci are ugly as sin....however....I spent a bit of time with a Super Vinci couple of weeks ago and the engineering looks pretty solid. | |||

ok let me rephrase the question, would you pay....... 150 for chokes even though your gun allready has them, and you are going to put the modified in there and never take it out, or 50 for a paracord sling? or 30 for a fiber optic sight that is going to snap off the first time you put the gun in a slip in case too roughly or 50 for a bolt handle and 50 for a button or 250 for a crio barrel? (not even sure what this does in a shotgun) is triger pull in an allready premium gun so bad you need another trigger job? how about polished inertia system? is it rough, is it bad on an 1800 dollar shotgun? FOrcing cones..... well cant criticize because I have paid for that before...... But overall I am going to call it marketing over function...... Now if it came with a black "pro staff" hoddie I might buy it haha | |||

You're right to question the cryo barrel. There's still a lot of debate on whether this is actually even beneficial in a rifle barrel. I have no idea what the true benefit would be in a shotgun. I doubt it would make one bit of difference in any measurable performance characteristic. -+-+- "If someone has a gun and is trying to kill you, it would be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun." - The Dalai Lama | |||
