Does anybody know of a place where one could test fire and handle a variety of shotguns before purchasing one? I'm interested in several but would like to play with a couple before laying down all my $$$.

Elm Fork but probably all Berettas.

Which ones are you interested in? Ask on here and you might find several to try out. Might be a little driving involved

What do you guys see for rental fees? Ive looked into 2x and the stores charged so much for renting, I couldn't justify rental cost for the guns I was interested in. I could see it with an expensive shotgun though.

Generally about $20 to rent for a round of sporting clays. Fossil Pointe has rentals as well but I don't know what kind they are. A few phone call would figure it out.
