This model is sold in the United States as the Browning Silver. I have one in 20 gauge and love it. I use it for trap and hunting doves and crows. Great gun!
Great to see the semi-autos getting a review. There a great gun, fun to use & easily maintained. We'll done to the Oxford gun company for doing the review, as I know some clubs tend to look down on these guns as there not the "standard" gun of choice. I own a remi 1100 which still to this day holds it's own against the modern shotguns.
I bought one of the first Remington Sporting Clays ,shot it for 10 years ,never a problem or jam using even 24 gram cartridges,to this day the only gun I regret selling.
I got a 1967 Auto5 Light twelve that I shoot 1 oz loads on trap all day long.. Love the hump back design as I can keep my head straight up while shooting..
Some Brownings are made down the road from me in Missouri. They make a huge line of rifles and Shotguns so not sure, but they do make decent shotguns from my own experience with them. Growing up in the country we used our Rem 870 with 28" vented rib for most wing shooting like summer Doves and winter Rabbits, Ducks. Still shoot clays with that same 870 from time to time.
Discontinue but it's a good thing my dad gave me his, all I shoot thru it is 3inch shotshell or 3inch slug. I love rapid firing the gold hunter, 1 in the chamber, 3 in the tube, does come with 2 barrel, one for birdshot the other for deer
A great video and the focus on safety as there should be with semis. I hAd a browning semi in the past and it was a great shotgun. I used it for hide shotung and it just worked but went back to over and under as we walk about from feild to feild a lot.
Even that I am a yank I still love your videos and you are the type of a fellow that I would love to shoot a round of skeet or sporting clays with. Take care. Jack
Phoenix, by the looks of it, is te old Gold Hunter and current Browning SIlver!!!!!! EXTREMELY RELIABLE FIREARM!!!!!!!!!!! I have one, 21 years old, cylcles 1oz loads up to 3:" 1 1/2oz laods
Hello David, I know the semi autos aren't that popular in the UK, BUT since you seem to be willing to demo the semi auto, I would highly recommend doing a demo with the Beretta A 400 Excel. Great gun, very little recoil, 30 inch barrel.
I've just bought the Grey/ATS Excel, took it's virginity yesterday and started with 25x21g Eley just to test it, followed by 25x24g and then 50x28g so 100 in total, no jams and all cycled like a dream, been a while since I've done 100 with no problems on a semi, including my old Browning. Couple of nice new features over the older one, extended bolt and release handles and the bottom gate holds itself out the way while loading into the mag so you don't get the dreaded finger Pinch or your glove stuck! Very happy with mine 👍
a very challenging adventure, I am also a hunter from the tropical forests of Indonesia, you can see our excitement when hunting. greetings success always for you, good jobs
There is no semi auto that beats the Beretta 391. If you're an avid pigeon shooter, it's a must have gun. If you are shooting clays, mostly, don't bother. They can be fussy with cartridges for cycling, are more complicated than an over and under and throw empty shells all over the place and the slam of the action as it cycles interferes a bit with aim, although that's a matter of technique, I guess. Also, the single barrel will get hooooooot! That said, horses for courses.
I have a Beratta a390 silver mallard from 2000 and pintail from 1987. They both haven’t skipped a beat or jammed with 1000’s of rounds through them. My Browning golds habe failed and jammed. The Browning also have plastic parts that fail…the recoil follower and buffers in $2000 guns. Browning customer service is horrible as well.
Nice jigger and some nice shooting .....Sigh, these days down here in the peoples republic of "Australiastan" we can only fondly reminisce about the effectiveness and delight that a using semi-auto Browning can deliver
Not all Browning semi auto's were great. I had an a500r, arguably Browning's worst semi ever. I'm guessing the person that stole mine twenty years ago didn't realize that.
I like a browning but pretty much no one including the local sporting clays places have one for me to look at. Order only here in central Florida. I did buy a browning citori csx at my local gun shop and it was the only one they had. It doesn’t fit me. I can shoot 80 out of 100 clays with it. But now im wanting to get something else and a year later still can’t find a local place or anywhere within 200 miles that has one. I went and got fitted yesterday and the rizzini br110 fits me the best in o/u And semi automatic is the beretta a400 sporting. Now im trying to decide which one I want
is the best!! im not have phoenix version but have the gold... my best shotgun!! you forget one thing that only Browning does, if you load from below when it is unloaded and open it rearms automatically
I liked this channel but it's turned into just Browning infomercial - every gun is a Browning derivate 90% of the time. The A400 is a superior auto by far
LMAO.....says who????? How many versions has Beretta had to come up with? Go to any American gun smith and find piles of A400's broken. Haters like you are comical lmao
Semis are a great option for all kind of shooting. I have an OU and a Browning Silver (very similar to this one). I choose the Silver 90% of the times no matter if I am hunting or shooting Trap, Skeet or Sporting. Not a very serious person. :)
