    I like shooting my XT32 for everything. One gun person but it would be nice to have a light 34 with a high impact. Perazzi makes them but i cant afford the Perazzi gun or $10,000 barrel.

    What is the 34” barrel going to do that the 32” barrel doesn’t?

    Sight plane. I would prefer a 35. I am far sighted. I have shot a friends 34 double P gun.

    It’s a shotgun. You’re not supposed to be looking at the sight. You’re supposed to be focused on the target.

    All you need is 33" for a single barrel & 30" for o/u--there was a Sporting Clays champ Anthony Mattarese who won a lot with a Beretta 391

    It worked out well. I won quite a bit of money with that old rusty 30 inch barreled shotgun.

    Shot trap for 50 years. Then after my wife died I just lost interest in it. So I pretty much sold everything. Haven’t shot in a few years now. I’m done

    I tried a 34" Perazzi that was lighter than my 32" but couldn't get used to the swing.

    Did you ever attend the grand back in the 90's? there was a gentleman that shot from a wheelchair if I remember right that shot one with about a 50" barrel.

    Well, then, I guess you'll just have to keep shooting your 32" XT.

    You could get an extra-long rib made for your gun.

    Bat Thompson was his name, I believe. I was always impressed watching him shoot, never put the gun to his shoulder, either.
