eightlittlebits Posted October 2 Report Share Posted October 2 Looks like it's "coming soon" based on this being a video just published by Browning Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that, I guess either a one eyed shooter or someone who looks good on film puling the trigger. Could well be someone they employed for the video, you never see him actually hit anything just pull the trigger and a separate clay breaking.

enfieldspares Posted October 3 Report Share Posted October 3 (edited) Another ridiculous "finish" where the maker can't decide if the thing is to be plain and form follows function or enhanced by being engraved. So it ends up half and half as if the money budgeted ran out part way. Can't stand this neither fish, fowl nor good red herring approach. A gun should either be plain and proud that what it does is its best quality or fully engraved. I like to contrast my late father's Henry Clarke boxlock ejector that was absolutely plain and my own Boss that was full on engraved. Do it all or don't do it at all. This half and half engraving is ridiculous. Edited October 3 by enfieldspares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudger687 Posted October 3 Report Share Posted October 3 Difficult to get excited over the latest repackaged browning over and under. "Oh wow it does exactly the same thing as all the other browning over and unders before it with a slightly different appearance" Honestly who cares?

Whitester Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 Personally I like the look of this. as there are no specs it’s hard to see where the differences are. I would say judging by the stock that it’s a dedicated clay gun with a more modern look to go after CG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 It reminds me of the Morris Marina, updated as the "Ital". A critic at the time said it was like combing the hair on a corpse. Now Browning are fine guns, but I agree with enfieldspares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, like several other people on here, am left handed with a right master eye, but I, shoot right handed. Always have done. Shooting left handed would feel totally unnatural to me.

It is allowed you know, surprised someone hasn't picked him up for shooting off the "wrong" shoulder........................ That video is so smoothly produced to entice people to part with their hard earned. What a shame they used such beautiful wood for an adjustable stock.

This half and half engraving is ridiculous. I think the 825 Citori has a plain action, although I’m sure there is a lengthy spec’ list. I get the impression some manufacturers struggle to come up with ‘new’ designs, after all, it can’t be easy as the mechanism was perfected around 100 years ago. The saying ‘if it ain’t broke don’t fix it’ comes to mind and they all have each other to compete with. I just wish they’d forego the gold triggers; how and when someone thought that was a good idea either from an aesthetic or sales point of view I’ll never know. But when alls said and done it’s a Browning, so it won’t be bad. Edited October 19 by Scully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mfozz Posted October 19 Report Share Posted October 19 Gotta have a bit of gold or you might as well go home😁 On another note, lads at a gun shop in the midlands I was at the other day, are expecting the new 825 to be at least 200-300 more than the outgoing 725, so your talking over 2.5k for grade 1 .

BobbyH Posted October 20 Report Share Posted October 20 What does the numbers mean? 525, 725 and now the 825? Is it just brownings model numbers, or does it mean something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
