Beretta 694 sporting

Evening all,
I am thinking of buying a second hand 694 sporting. I have actually put a deposit down on one that has done very little work. It is for clay shooting at club level and the odd comp. I had a go with it on Saturday and liked it's handling, love how it looks and feels. I did feel it was a bit sharp with recoil (24grm fibres), but I had just shot 200 clays (100 Fri/100Sat) with my Beretta Ultralight! 🤣
My question to those that can help is this;
Have you or anyone you know had or have a 694, and have had any issues at all? From finish, metalwork or reliability?
There seems to be a few issues online particularly in relation to ejecting used cartridges and also cracks in the woodwork.
Regards
Adam.
 
Not a 694, but few years back bought one of the first 692, and the stock cracked, replaced under warranty.
 
I’ve a 694, used it a lot when I was clay shooting (times gone by) great gun and can’t fault it. Used it for game as well. A lot of gun for the money, next step is is a DT11 and 3 times the price.
If you’re going to be doing a lot with it I’d suggest getting one with an adjustable stock.

Does the comb raiser make much difference? I have seriously been considering it..
