new/old Browning in my safe...

[Old Unc']

just picked up a mint Browning B-2000 12g/28", Mod choke, 2-3/4", ventilated rib, autoloader!

The B2000's were produced in Belgium and assembled in Portugal. It resembles an A-5, but is a gas operated auto. I'm tellin' ya', this one is gorgeous. Grade III wood with hand (not machine) checkering.

Can't wait to shoot it!!

Be sure to get some light non gumming oil on the moving parts before the range report, you will thank me for the advice!
These guns are super handy field guns for the speed feed device and the modified barrel will do it all with the right loads.
DON"T mess with the butt plate other than maybe removing it for storage before you put a QUALITY non marking slip on recoil reducer which come pretty slim these days. I prefer Limbsaver 10547 which adds 1" minus the 3/8" if you remove and save the FN plate.However the class act which also goes on and stays well for hunting or clay sport one is:
