RE: lanber or verona o/u
My buddy just bought a Lanber and it looks very nice and shoots well. I had the opportunity to shoot it and it handled very well. I have seen the Verona at Gander Mountain and they visually look a little more appealing than the Lanber. I'm partial to Italian O/U being a Beretta shooter, but I think either one will do you very well for a long time. The Lanber he bought was $500 and the Verona at Gander reatailed at$750.
