BROWNING 12G SEMI AUTOMATIC SHOTGUN.
Model 2000 Browning Semi-automatic 12g shotgun. This comes at a fixed 1/2 choke 28” (710mm) barrel with ¼ (6mm) raised and ventilated sight rib. The 14 ¼” (363mm) stock has some decent straight grain contrast with darker stripes through the full length. A gloss black finished action also has some unassuming engraving very similar to that found on the old Double Automatics / Twelvette guns. Looking at both guns side by side it is clear the action release and loading ports are very similar. No doubt an updated version on this gun and why not… if it works why try and fix it?
At an overall length and weight of 47 7/8” (1226mm) and 7Lbs 9oz (3.43 Kg) respectively the gun is exceptionally clean throughout. Woodwork is almost unmarked and the metal work is in the same condition. Even the chequering is still sharp and clean. It is basically impossible that the gun can have been used to any real degree…..you simply cannot keep a semi-auto this clean when using it!

THE STEEL SHOT DEBACLE?
FIRST THING: Given lead is SO dangerous, can we ask about getting every lead water main replaced? After all, ANYONE with one of those still supplying water has zero choice. LETS PUT THAT QUESTION TO HEALTH AND SAFETY EXECUTIVE AS WELL AS THE GOVERNMENT.
That is every child’s grazed knee washed out with lead infested water (direct into their blood stream. Every glass of juice. Every cup of tea or coffee, Vegetables washed and cooked in the stuff. ALL that DELICIOUS Gravy. Cloths washed in it. Then we bath in the sodding lead infested stuff!
HOW DO THEY DEFEND THIS FACT?
THEN THERE ARE more and more Non-Toxic Shot alternatives being produced. WITH near matching performances to traditional lead and close to, if not matching pressures. Take a look at Horton Gunmakers for their own entry into this debacle of modern-day shooting. APPARENTLY so lethally deadly to shooters and game eaters? How is it every old lead water main supply pipe is not getting ripped out and replaced? To my mind it’s a DISGRACE that the shooting industry did not simply ask that one simple question. NO, they saw an excuse to charge a fortune and that mainly to the detriment of the quarry. Just my opinion …..for what its worth?
Anyway, take a look for yourself:
NOW, TRY and help speed up availability. I WILL suggest that YOU pass on details to everyone you know who shoots. Then ask whoever we buy from WHY they are not DEMANDING cartridges made in this material? Basically VOTE with your WALLET.
YES, it will take a little time for everything to filter through, but patience IS a virtue. It also allows everyone who wants to keep hold of their ‘old favourite’ for the rest of their lives. Even pass it on to the next generation and hopefully beyond!
On that note I AM looking into the possibility of stocking some direct from Steve at Hortons. RING for an update and keep checking the web site.
