HA1067 Browning BSS Side-by-Side, 20 Ga., 2 3/4" & 3", 26"MF Bbls., (Used 99+%), $1,995

For a full page of  photographs and a detailed description click the photo above or click here.

Made in 1976, the third year of production for 20 Gauge BSS shotguns, this gun may never have been fired.  The bluing and wood are in excellent condition, with only the lightest handling marks in the gloss finish.  It is fitted with a Single Non-Selective trigger (SNS) so that the more open right barrel with a Modified choke always fires first, followed by the left barrel with a Full choke.  It has an automatic safety which goes on safe every time the gun is opened.  It balances right at the hinge for fast handling.  Its 26" barrels, which chamber both 2 3/4" & 3" shells, are ideal for upland hunting.  It has a wide wrap-around beaver tail style forearm which protects the hand from hot barrels (unlike a splinter forearm which requires using gloves or a slip on hand-guard).  All in all this is a beautifully kept, historic, and functional gun for hunting or collecting.
