Beretta 694 Vs Krieghoff K-80 

Does he ever blink

Totally agree with your breakdown. As a 694 owner, I have been beyond pleased!

As an owner of a 694 Sporting I am glad to see this comparison but wouldn't a comparison between a DT-11 and the K-80 be more appropriate?

C’mon compare the DT11 to the K80….seriously the 694?!

If you want to say the 694 is a nice gun then just say that. To compare the Beretta 694 to a Krieghoff K-80 is so ridiculous it’s laughable.

Awesome review, I own a 694 that I purchased without an adjustable comb. For me, that was a mistake. I prefer a gun with a higher point of impact and the 694 just shot too low for me. My stock is now currently with "Stocker John" here in the US that is cutting in an adjustable comb for me. Before I mailed it to him I was shooting the 694 with great success and pleasure with a neoprene comb riser. I will be glad to have the wood stock back without the neoprene sleeve showing off that "Grade 2.5" wood. (We all know it's Grade 3) One more thing, when I raised the comb with the sleeve it changed the angle the recoil pad rested on my shoulder. It made it so one corner of the recoil pad impacted my shoulder and bruised my shoulder pocket. The solution I found is to add a 0"-3/8" angled shim in front of the recoil pad to account for the 3/8" I raised the comb. After dialing in the 3/8" comb riser and the 3/8" angle shim in the recoil pad, the 694 patterns exactly how I want it to and the recoil to back to factory (barely anything). It's a great gun and I look forward to shooting it for many more years.

I'm receiving a 694 pro with the tsk stock next week. I would love to see a unboxing and setting the stock up video.

Good vid, I own Beretta 686 20 n 12 ga and love shooting with them especially because they are fitted to me. I’m retired so no more shotguns for me. I take them hunting too along with sporting clays. I have killed countless ducks, geese, quail, n doves with them an really enjoy them for over 30 years. I would like a lighter but smooth shooting over n under 12 ga. I just bought the A400 ultralight and it shoots super smooth and is light for an automatic.

Might have helped on the recoil if your Beretta actually fitted you, as you looked distinctly uncomfortable handling it ,the Krieghoff looked far better suited to you .

A solid shooter equipped with a reliable gun that fits properly and patterns well is all you need. Yes, Kreighoff triggers are better but don’t forget to mention that you “must” get those triggers tuned every two years ($400). Don’t tune the K-80 triggers and you run the risk of breaking an axle or hammers.

Krieghoff and Perazzi on another level.

The forend cracked on mine after only 2 months of use! This appears to be a common issue. no response from Beretta!!

That’s an old K80. It’s not a super sport. Very gaudy. Too much. Recoil system is aftermarket, finish is aftermarket, pistol grip cap is add on. Comparing an old right handed fixed choke gun against a left handed new miltichoke 694 … makes perfect sense Reviewing guns … from the brief shots and other videos, very much an amateur shooter, not the best basis for putting out review videos. As such no one considering buying a K gun will be interested, let alone swayed … unless for laughs. Rating guns 94 and 96/100 lol. But put your money up, buy the gun, have a stock made by say Manuel Ricardo, sell the RH stock and let’s see your scores🤗 Not being harsh but why on earth are you ‘reviewing’ guns? Please by all means give opinion and call it such but ‘someone came and I videoed it on my worktop’ is a bit light on insight, knowledge and value. Anyone that genuinely shoots CPSA competitions to a consistent standard, will cringe at this content. Who are you informing? An amateur definitely wouldn’t buy a K gun without knowing ‘why’, so many things can change as knowledge increases. Anyway, not here to trash you but it would be better to acknowledge your knowledge and skills may not be that of an accomplished shot. If by some chance you are in fact a AA competition shot - I will gladly eat my comment snd hush 🙋🏼‍♂️

Was the 694 a 30" or 32" barrel? What length do you prefer?

Whenever I've stumbled onto your videos they make me squirm. Watching you shooting that 694 was painful also literally has beginner written all over it.

694 compared to a K80, i dont think so, no comparison what so ever, i have shot both guns and the beretta feels like a plastic kids gun compared to a K80. Needless to say i purchased a K80.

Just got my 694 ..fantastic

694 and DT11 are both amazing shotguns, ive shot a krieghoff and didnt rate it at all, felt like tank and quite bland.

Ok but for the money the Krieghoff is a rip off compared. They also weight about 7 tons. My mate has one and because he paid so much for it he cannot bring himself to admit that it isn't the right gun for him. I have offered him many times the chance to try one of my guns and he simply won't do it. I have been shooting with a Browning Ultra XTR for the past 8 years and love it to bits despite one or two niggles. It was 3300 euros new 18 years ago, so not a cheap gun. Last Year I bought a brand new Browning XS Pro. It comes with all the bells and whistles and is beautiful too. But... After a whole year shooting very well with it here in France and hardly touching my Utra XTR I went back to the Ultra to test it again and guess what, I shoot better with it. So I'm afraid that all that money spent on a new XS Pro (3800 euros) didn't work out very well. It's now up for sale.

Why only a 16 rating on the Beretta Trigger? Was it that Bad? I shot a k-80 for a few years and know what a good trigger feels like. Curious your thoughts on the 694

I own a 692 32” sporting and wish I would have held out for the 694. How can a K80 be legendary when it’s a Remington 3200 that they bought the rights to?

Does this guy ever blink?

Hi, and what do you think about DT11? Better Sporting or ACS? Thanks

If you were buying a 694 dt 11 Where would you suggest getting fitted and purchasing

Like comparing apples and oranges. You can tailor every detail of the K80 to your liking. I've never shot 2 K80s that feel identical so limits the ability to compare it to another gun and specially a gun 4 to 5 times the value. The Berretta is mass produced to a budget. Yes great value for what you get but in a totally different league to K80. I don't agree with you in the trigger pulls on K80 for me its always been a big let down of the gun. The feeling of the mechanical reset to the second barrel takes some getting used to. Personally think the Blaser F3 trigger is on another level to all other factory triggers

the Beretta looked like a toy compared to the Krieghoff, but the Krieghoff felt lighter

the super fast are 27 grams not 28 grams pal i all so shoot them myself great cartridge

Very informative and I’d love to see more comparison videos

Chalk and cheese mid range versus top range not like for like

didn`t see much shooting there

Just watching you mount the gun made me disregard everything you say

Stick a left hand tsk stock on the k80 job done give the man the money. See you soon . A

you cant compare beretta with krieghoff are not in the same levell ...... krieghoff shotguns can compare only with perazzi shotguns

694 I got is junk shells get stuck in the gun every few shots

Try a high tec trigger

Love this!

Has your 694 got a tiny bit of front to back play on the forened yet?

Very well done comparison!

Your 694 i guess was not fitted to you - it being your own gun. Your cheek was floating over the gun with barely any contact.

So for 11k more, or roughly 3x the price, you can a gun that's 2% better... got it... smh. So why do I still want a K-80...lol.

3k gun compared to a 14k gun...

You just made me dump USD$4899 on a new 694 Pro with the TSK stock. 😄

Or stick a tsk on your 694

i have to say, don't touch MY GUNS,,, the way you slammed the actions shut, like a gorilla slamming a Bentley door shut................
