COlNG FOR COLD WITH BERETTA.
Over the years Beretta have became the most dedicated
gunmaker in the world, committed to making fine guns for every
application. Their acceptance and quality are second to none
although price wise the Beretta guns are expensive -aften the
concession for a wide range of production and excellent quality!
Beretta's 682 Gold Sporting sent for review was everything I
expected, *hen it nlrtved. F r u n its hard covel.cusc and

that compliments the bruniton well. I have no information on its
maintenance but feel this surface rvould need to be wiped clean
with a lightly oiled patch to maintain its pristine condition. Gold
inlaid scroll lettering is featured an bath sides and beneath the
receiver and compliments the gold plated trigger. Beretta have
kept their embellishment of the receiver to a minimum, just
enough to give the 682 Gold and air of elegance. The waodwo~.k
was perfectly matched with near faultless checkering - a hallmark
of Beretta quality.

At a glance the gun looked great. The standard Beretta
dark blue hard case supplied with the gun housed all accessories
whilst the fawn gunsocks, for the separate stock and barrel set,
provided a finishing touch. The Bruniton application to the
barrels is bv now a familiar feature of Beretta under and over

\vould need to be maintained. If the bruniton is scratched, a
repair kit can be utilised to reinstate the bruniton whereas with a
blued set of barrels the gun would need to be re-blued. Quite a n
expensive exercise. Beretta have introduced a new finish for the
receiver of the 682 Gold - "Grevstone". This is a mevhlack finish

set triggers, (one far a left handed shooter and the other for a
right), were included as accessories. The trigger foot is removable
and has three pre-set positions. Beretta have also generously
provided a precision screw driver for this purpose. The safety and
integral barrel selector were located on the tang beneath the top
lever. A file-cut selector positively selected either barrel as
desired -one red dot for the under barrel and two red dots for the
upper barrel. Unlike a trap gun, a barrel selector is a necessity
with a sporting clays gun particularly when facing driven targets,
requiring the tightest choked barrel to be fired first. Beretta have
acknowledged an earlier design problem and recessed tho selector
switch below the level of the safety catch. This is a pleasing
modification.
The stock and woodwork were well matched with the
schnabel forend providing a final, practical touch. Checkering,
completed a t 20 lines per inch, was well executed. Overruns
were not evident and a double line border contained grips on the
farend and pistol grip of the stock. A palm swell was installed on
the right hand side of the pistol grip. This "hand-filling" feature

Beretta model. Whether Beretta have come of age after surviving
for over 400 years or they have matured with age, as with a good
red wine, I can only say that coupled with a 5 year warranty the
682 Gold Sporting was a magnificent firearm to use, a t whatever
discipline. Although the Australian distributor's price is as good
as any throughout the rvorld the 682 models are not cheap. They

I watched in awe at the precision of Louis.
.
He held the trigger
assembly above the lamp's flame until the surfaces of the sides and
tap were blackened. He then fitted the group into the aetian. He
opened and closed the aetion and pressed the trigger twice to set off each
of the two inertia firing pins. He removed the tvigger group and
studied the tiny silvery surfaces where the black earbon had been
worn away. "Aqui!" he said to me. '"Here!" He pointed to a shiny line about
the width of a hair.
of emery cloth
Louis made a few short passes with a fine grit
over the area where the carbon had warn away. Again he blackened the
assembly and repeated the process. With unhurried focus, he worked the
action, discharged the firing pins and removed the trigger group
again. He repeated the operation, each time applying the emery cloth and
removing the steel a thousandth of a millimetfe a t a time. He did not stop
the blackening and filing until no carbon wore off when the action was
operated several times. Only then did he accept that the trigger group fit
perfectly.
I started to walk over to the man working an the actions, but John
interrupted. Time to get back to the hotel, he said. Fine by me, I
thought. I needed to wark an arganising my notes, do more reading
and, if possible, take a short nap befom dinner. We were scheduled to visit
the factory the next morning, so I would have the oppottunity to speak to
the other workers. I patted Louis on the shoulder and thanked him far
allowing me to observe his work.
The next morning brought more insights
the making of a
Best" escopeta. In the sun-dappled light, I stood next
Antonio Ballesteros, the craftsman entrusted with what Wieland
described as one of the most demanding skills in ynmaking, action
filing. The technique is "toda a mana" Antonio tald me, his eyes
glittering in exultation, "totally by h a n d . He asked me to touch the
gleaming receiver and the sideplate. On the minor-like surface I could see
the reflection of my hand.
On a whim, I picked up a
that was leaning against the wall
near him, held it at
end and let it hang down. With my
hand I snapped my fingernail against the middle
one the
barrels. A clear bell-like tone resulted. I repeated this pinging up and
down the length of the balml. Each time the resulting tone was
melodic and clean. No dead spats in the welding, I concluded.

farce and
he made a few sharp strokes against t h e
glistening steel. He removed the action Rom the vice, cocked it, set off the
first firing pin, then gently tapped the aetion with his fist until the
second spring was cocked. He performed this process ten repetitions. I
counted. With his forefinger and a middle finger, Antonio then
touched the steel surfaces that were rubbed by the moving patts of the
action.
Trustingsensov ncuwns tuned by thousands of touches, he felt their cold
smoothness, then placed the aetian back in the vice and applied fouv or
five precise strokes with the tile and additional strokes with the emery
cloth. With a blast from an air compl.essor, he cleaned the dust-like
metal filings from the action. He repeated the enti1.e tedious sequence
again and again until h e was satisfied. ON the average, one aetian is
completed eaeh day. Aware of my interest, Antonio stappcd for. a
moment and handed me an assembled shotgun that he had just

I shook Antonio's hand and said goadbyc. I crossed the work area,
went to Pedro Arreitunandia and greeted him again. "Hello,
Michelangelo!" He responded with a warm smile. We resumed our
discussion from yestet.day. The receiver he was working on featured
birds in flight in realistic fine shallow engraving.
He strives to create something personal, he tald me, seeking to
transmute other styles into his unique interpretation. Pedm's home is by
the water, about twenty kilometres Ram Eibar. In his living room
overlooking the Gulf of Biscay, he sits, stares and dreams of paving
styles. He tald me that his wife asks what he's thinking about.
"Engraving", he answe1.s. New styles, ncw patterns, how to improve. He
is never satisfied.
"Siempre mejorando", be tald me, allowing me a glimpse of his soul.

"Always impt.oving." Pedro loves his e~.aft.He studies constantly to get
better. Each piece must be better than all previous ones, he tald me.
"Siempre mejoranda". he repeated. "Always getting better."
Pedro ~.aisedhis hands p~.ayet.fully.His work is a hobby, he confided. "Me
gusta mueha", he reiterated throughout our convet.sation. ''I like it
very much." He articulated a sentiment about his profession that I
cannot remember ever having heard expressed by anyone. "Estoy
contenta." "I am content", he said. He brought his hands together.
"Pengo mueha suerte."A humble smile bloomed an his delicate face. "I am
very lucks." 1 know few people that would make that statement, even
though it
bejustified'
I hugged Pedra, e n v y i n ~ h i sserenity and skill. Perhaps some day. I
told him, he will creak a mesterpieec for me. "I hope so", he told me. I bid
him farewell. Our group left the Kemen facto1.y and joined A:.cadio for a
lunch of grilled steak and peppery fried fish, potatoes smothered with
cabbage and another bottle of Rioja.
had offered to take us to Sari Sebastian
the
to
some international trap and bunker shooting. I was looking forward to
that opportunity. I had "eve]. tried those sports. Prior to the trip to
Spain, John had sent me a gorgeous KM-4 twelve gauge to demo. I
had tried the Kernen with several different t.eload ~ecipesa t the
Cherry Creek Shooting Club's ten-stand sporting clays vange. I was
particularly impressed with the performance and low recoil of the oneounce and the seven-eighth ounce "international" lands. I awaited the
challenge of utilising similar loads and testing my modest skills on the
faster European-style clays. I t was not to be. The weathet.\v\.ashostile. A
dense blanket of fag along with intermittent rain rolled in from the
Sea'
The aftet.naon passed quickly. Par am. last few hours together, Jahn and
I migratcd to thc smoky bal. of thc Hotel Arrate. We talked late into our
last evening in Eibar. He share his philosophy an shotguns, his love of
shooting and how he interweaves the sport with his charity ivo~.k.He also
offered his vision of Kcmcn's future. To survive, John opined, Iiemen
must maintain its fastidious pursuit of pcl.fection. Kcmen is
incveasing its p~.aductline. It has begun to produce over-and-unde~
target guns in t\vcnty gauge and twenty-eight gauge in addition to the
side-by-sidc in thoscgauges.
John's eyes glittered with intensity as he spoke. A shootel.should not buy
a Kemcn, he emphasised, if the shotgun is seen as no mare than a less
expensive COPY of an English 01. Italian "best" model. That would be
unfair to all the manufacturers. The Kcmcn stands on its own unique
me'its and qualities, he added. I saw haw the guns were made and
thus, between sips of bitter Basque beet.. I felt justified in nodding in
agreement'
I disclosed that Juan Cruz had taken my measurements for a y n .
Juan had kept poking me, pushing my head highev. "alta", 01. lower.

I shrugged. "Just in ease". I told Jahn. We a1.e taught to save for a
rainy day. I mused, but we'1.e not given much guidance to know when that
rainy day is soon to be upon us. It's all a crapshoot. I figured. Based on
experiences in my line of work, there is one truism I have ~eluetantly

Many shooters will say that the Kemen and its ilk are extyavagant.

The Inaugural Australian Shooting Games wrapped up on 11th July,
bringing to an end a very successful new event. Over 50 different
shooting matches were completed during the event, which attracted in
excess of seven hundred match participants. Competitors came from
every state in Australia and also from New Zealand. The Clay Target
results are included rvith this report.
As the event incorporated several significant individual matches the
Games were able to attract favourable media coverage. Channel
Nine's Wide World of Sport covered the Sporting Clay COMPAK
National Titles and the Sunday Mail published a good human
interest story. Various Quest newspapers also ran items of local
interest.
The event was also well patronised by Federal, State and Local
Government members who performed many of the medal
presentations. The Games Patron, Graeme McDougall MHR h a s
continually provided support for the event and believes the concept
has the necessary qualities that will ensure growth in the future.

Thanks must go to Dot Trindall, who looked after the catering and
everything clsc that needed to be done, and a small band of helpers, Col

did not fire. Lowering the gun from his shoulder, he turned his

Through winter and summer they shoot a t millions of targets breaking most of them - meet new people and travel across the
U.S.
I t all started on the grounds of the Glen Rock Kennels in the town
of Andover, Massachusetts in 1920. I t was there and then that a
small group of upland game hunters, including the late C.E.
Davies, proprietor of the Glen Rock Kennels, his son Henry W.,
and the late William H. Foster, all of Andover, were shooting a t
clay targets as a means of obtaining wing-shooting practice with
their favourite upland guns. Their shootinggradually developed
into a regular program that gave each shooter the same series of
shots so that the competition, which was inevitable, might be
even.

the lirst Uatiunal Ch:irnplt)nih~pShcrcrt was Ilcld Augoir 26.31,
Originally, the arrangement was a complete circle of twenty-five
yards radius with the circumference marked off like the face of a
clock. The trap was set a t "12 o'clock" and was set to throw the
targets aver "6 o'clock". The competitive program consisted of
shooting two shots from each of the twelve stations. The shell that
was left over from a box was used, first as a stunt, to shoot a t a n
ineomer from the center ofthe circle. This later proved to be a
shot offering real snap-shooting practice and has since developed
into the plan of Station Eight shots of the regulation program.
"Shooting around the clock" as it was informally called, had most
of the elements ofmodern skeet shooting. But, a commonplace

Noting the appeal of this form ofshooting, Foster became
convinced that development of the idea could be made nationally
acceptable. He therefore set about to complete a shooting program
that would contain all the necessary elements of wing-shooting
practice and a competitive sport. Among the additions were the
four sets of doubles and the optional shot.
When the details of the sport had been worked out and tested,
and a set of rules drawn up, the idea was introduced to the public
in the February 1926 issue of both National Sportsman and
Hunting and Fishing magazines. At the same time, a prize of
$100 was offered far the most appropriate name for the new sport.
It was won by Mrs. Gertrude Hurlbutt of Dayton, Montana, who
suggested "Skeet", an old Scandinavian form of the word "shoot".
Some 10,000 entries were received in the contest.
The American shooter was apparently ready and waiting for a
practical form of wing-shooting with the shotgun that would give
Victory Cartridges Australia
With the end of the world conflict, a dedicated group of skeet
enthusiasts officially bmught the sport back to the public with
organization and incorporation of the present National Skeet
Shooting Association in December, 1946. This new association
was financed in the beginning by a substantial, no-interest loan
from the National Rifle Association. The National Championship
Shoot was resumed a t Indianapolis in 1946 and it has been held
annually ever since.

In addition to the regular skect shooting program of 12, 20, and
28 gauge, ,410 bore and doubles, there are the international style
and the collegiate divisions, both with specifically designed
regulations.
The international style features thc previous low-gun position
and variable-timing target release, requircd by NSSA rules up to
1952. Contrasted to the present cheeked gun position, this style is
required by the International Shooting Union, a worldwide
shooting organization, and the International Olympic Committee,
producer of the Olympic Games, where skeet shooting was first
included on the program in 1968.
