Windknot Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 I've been on the lookout for a S/A gun, but I've been looking at the Beretta 391. Now I've found a Browning Gold at a decent price. How good/ bad are they? What should I look out for when buying a used one? I'll be using the gun mainly for clays. Ta! Jakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
