Proudly Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Seen the above in a local shop I like the look of. What are peoples thought on these as a general all round gun? If it fits me I’ll possibly buy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 A mate used to have one which I like the look of, but never got to have a go with one until a syndicate member brought one to the shoot. If I recall they were designed to be an out and out competition gun, and the one I used came up very nicely indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decoy1979 Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 I've got one with 32" barrels and really like it for all forms of shooting, what barrel length are you looking at? In terms of fit, it should be fully adjustable if supplied with all original shims & spacers & stock has a comb raiser. You can't go wrong it's a Browning afterall!!

You best get back to the gun shop and start haggling then!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westward Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 I tried one that belonged to an acquaintance about 7 or 8 years ago. I think it was an early one and it had 32s. Honest opinion: I didn't like anything about it, overall weight was too light for a competition gun, the balance was hugely nose heavy thanks to the very light stock and I thought the trigger pulls were awful, being both heavy and the opposite of crisp. Maybe later models were an improvement but I don't see many around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.C Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Mate had one I tried and shot OK with it. They are light for a clay gun and the weight is a bit forward. Seem to remember extra gubbins and springs in the forend. Nicely engineered but mate couldn't trade it in, gun shop didn't want it. If it's in a traders and you really want it you might get a deal. Is it wood or synthetic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proudly Posted October 12, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Synthetic, searched online & can only find one other on guntrader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.C Posted October 13, 2018 Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) Uh yes, you did say black ice, should have concentrated. That one on GT looks a little used, noting the wear on the grip. There are two more if you check composite and one looks tidy. Edited October 13, 2018 by Mr.C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
