Browning Gold 20

You just reminded me that yep I have one of these too. It's in the box in a Cedar Chest in my wifes sewing room. Bought it quite a few years ago for my father in law. He couldn't shoot the 12 ga cause of all the coumadin(blood thinner) he was taking. Bruised him up pretty bad. Took him duck and goose hunting few times and it killed ducks and geese with bismuth pretty well. Going to go to my grandson later this year. Not a great fan of Brownings but that gun always worked.. As far as Browning Auto 5s..If they are a chronic jammer it is usually a pretty easy fix. Sometimes though it IS the shooter. Sometimes if shooting reloads it could be the ammo. And as an owner of 1100/11-87s of more years than I like to admit, if your 1100 hasn't jammed on you yet..You've been missing something in life. Keep shooting it especially in cooolllldddd weather. It will hang up. Love those guns. And I do know how to make 'em fly. Have 2 sets of D grade guns(12 20 28 410) and 8 or 10 others. Broken many a hundred straight at skeet...and a few 100s in Trap. Just bought a 20 ga 1100 G3 when Cabela's opened in Billings. Darn things got really expensive(1300 bucks) over the years. But I got it new for under 500 bucks. Going to shoot it at pheasants and maybe quackers this year. Darn thing came with a really nice hard luggage type case. You wouldn't think there is a gun in it till you open it.
