Has anyone any experience with the Beretta UGB25XCel 12 bore only semi auto...performance, reliability, recoil management, fit and handling?

I'm totally enamoured. nay, awe struck with the design and have been since I saw and handled a 20 bore C o s m i at a gun show many years ago and this comes closet and for a third the price...

The catalogue specs and description are great but I'd like to get some opinions prior to me getting one sent to my dealer, where I would have to pay shipping/handling costs both directions and brokerage fees (if any), for me to get to handle it..

At this time, I am not interested in any other gun(s) other then a Cosmi--which I believe was the inspiration for the UGB and that one I'd order as a 16 bore--Unless there is another, similar design, that I'm not aware of! I/we have more then enough O/U, SxS and semi autos for all my/our shooting and hunting needs...

This is strictly for the three of us (me, myself and I) a want gun that will be used for its intended design, occasionally hitting flying clay circles and major, heavy duty bragging rights--if it's worth it!

The one I handled and shot seemed low on recoil and a decent gun. As a LH, the bottom ejection is also a plus. Somewhere, IIRC, Bruce Buck wrote a review of it.
