This video provides a guide to the top five budget shotguns, emphasizing value for money. The instructor highlights that used firearms often offer superior bang for your buck, with specific recommendations including used Marocchi, new Turkish over-unders (Yilders, Kofs, ATA), the Beretta AL391, Mossberg Maverick 88, and the Franchi Barrage. An honorable mention is given to Spanish boxlock shotguns like AYA for their exceptional value and reliability.

This video reviews the Franchi Barrage, a 1979 Italian competition shotgun acquired for £358. The presenter highlights its plain walnut stock, open pistol grip with palm swell, and a unique stepped rib with a red tram line. While information on the Barrage is scarce, it's identified as a sporting or trap model, though its quarter and three-quarter choke configuration is noted as less common for trap. The gun features mechanical triggers and a reliable, no-frills build, making it a shootable and potentially valuable option for those seeking quality at a lower price point.
