KMDwn-

My Browning has served me well for over 22 years now (GTi with gold logo) - after fitting and tweaking it shoots where I look. Have fired over 10,000 rounds through it without a hiccup. Sure its not a fancy Beretta or a Parker - but hard to find a better value for the money.o:)

LOL, just takin smack brother. I have shot a .410 Browning Citori for dove and quail for more than a dozen years. For a while I shot a Browning Golden Clays, 32" barrels on the clays circuit. From there went to a Beretta and then from there to Kreighoff. After shooting the Kreighoff, sometimes it's hard for me to actually get the Browning to fire. (huge difference in triggers) Taught my daughter to shoot with a Browning 325. I think I still have it somewhere in the safe.

After they are fit properly, the Browning O/U are pretty stable, performing guns. Now the Browning Gold Sporting Semi-auto is a whole different story. Know many shooters that have had trigger problems in just 2 years.

But I got to try out my "new" SXS---I hit some...barely.

I get out once sometimes twice a month and I was in need of some of this, its been a long cold winter in Chicago, had to get out.

The new gold Browning autos are garbage compared to the old humpback models. I learned on Remington 11-48's and still shoot my Father's old 16 and 20 gauges from the mid-50's. G'pa had a 1945 American Browning that would fire just about anything by did not eject the new plastic hulls every time. The gun was made for the cardboard shells that did not expand with heat like the plastic hulls.

Always wanted a Beretta but did not have the coin at the time. But that was before kids.Still get out to shoot a few times a year and always enjoy it.o:)
