Browning Gold Hunter
 

Just bought a Gold hunter 2 3/4 & 3" 26" barrel.It reads Made in belgium assembled in portugal.I have some A-5 brownings, but have never had any experience with the gas -operated brownies.I have not had a chance to shoot it yet.I really like the look and feel of this gun.I think it will probally be a pretty good rabbit ,bird gun.Any body have one ,and how do you like yours.Will they handle the low brass shells and the heavy stuff without changing rings etc.Thanks

Hey Swampdog I bought pretty much the same gun 2-3 years ago 26in" & 3in" chamber. L like the gun a lot. It has very minimal recoil and is a great bird gun.

I don't know that much about low brass shells. However I may have an idea. I have had problems shooting Winchester's cheaper shotguns shells out of it. It usually jams up and is unable to eject the shell from the chamber so I switched over to a diffrent type of shell (Fiochhi) and it has worked great since. I hope that helps

I just got a gold hunter european (satin finish w/ a semi-humpacked reciever) It cycles all my loads very good and kicks like a 22, i miss being a little bruesd after a day of shooting..the only hting i have really is the d*mn recoil pad, it sticks to my shoulder so i can make any fine adjustments...+its about 3/4 inch long so i just cant take it off. Why do they have such a hefty recoil pad on a gas operated gun?
