Gun and gear reviews Its your fault

Post image

This is all your guys fault. I always browsed Intersurplus.com but never really bought anything until today. Seeing you guys buying up all the good deals I had no choice, bought this earlier, as a side note. So far intersurplus has been great to deal with. I haven't received the firearm yet but so far they are very organized and professional.

Just wait until you see the reliable European o/u shotguns for the same price (my main trap gun for the last 2 years was a Sabatti for 395$. Other than an initial forend fix, it’s never not gone bang)

That's my next purchase. I wanted a decent gun for deer season first and foremost. I have a Savage Axis but I hate it

What's wrong with the Axis? I've never had one and don't hunt but I'm curious why you hate it haha

The original Axis, I've never handled an Axis 2 but I assume this applies as well, just feels very cheap. The bolt on my Axis 1 was awful, super sloppy, sometimes bound up. Accurate gun, but everything else felt cheap. I assume the trigger on the 2 with the Accutrigger is better, but the Axis 1 trigger was pretty bad, and then with the bolt issues, I sold it pretty fast. 

The Savage 334 on the other hand, is fantastic for around the same price. It is better in every way vs the Axis. I honestly don't know why the sell both. I absolutely love my 334, and it's basically on par with my Ruger American Predator Gen 2. Everyone looking at an Axis should buy a Savage 334 instead, except that they don't come in 223 unfortunately.
