Another option for 'ya if you just can not shoot a pheasent with one of your lesser guns...

Contact Berreta...if the repair takes place within the Country (which is typical of high-end merchandise that is built overseas aside from Korea, China etc. etc.), ask if you can have the sell transfered to another dealer and offer to pay any extra shipping costs (overnight delivery etc. etc.).

Also find out what Berreta's policy regarding selling direct is, maybe there is some way you can weasel them into selling you the gun direct.

Next, find out who the local sales rep for Berreta is and contact them. Be nice but be to the point with the rep and let them know how a certain dealer treated you. Alot of times, they can pull strings that no one else can.

Just some thoughts...
