Yes I was the winner.

I now own a new unfired Browning Recoilless Single shot Trap gun. I have read up on this gun. A pretty amazing gun, that was priced very high in it's day. Which really lead to it demise. It cost so much to build, that it's over $2,000 price tag back in 1995-1996 was just too high priced for many shooters. The gun kicks like a 22 rim fire. It is adjustable for LOP, drop and the vent rib is adjustable as well. It comes with Invector Plus chokes. I have read that people have shot them for up to 125,000 rounds and had zero troubles with the guns. It was a little more then I wanted to spend on a trap gun but it was new in the box and much more of a dedicated trap gun then most that only have a different butt stock on nothing more then a field gun. Should be able to adjust it to fit well and there for help me shoot better. My pain and fatigue from illness should really deal well with the no recoil of the gun too.

Here's a pic of the Browning Recoilless Trap Gun
 
Very interesting looking.

So, its a single shot.... what is the action? How does it load?
 
Manual operated bolt single shot.
 
Onpoint,
Let me know what you think about the gun after you have shot it some, I have seen a couple at gun shows here but have yet to talk to someone who has owned one.
I really like the feel of the gun and am interested in the gun but would lke to hear from someone who has shot one.
I am a Shriner and the commander of our shooting team, security team, once a year the Shriners in the middle states have a get together with competitions, we compete in pistol shooting as well in trap and sporting clays and I am looking for a different trap gun.

Will do copheasanthunter, I plan to give it a try as soon as it gets into my hands. I'm going to shoot a little youtube video with the gun, as there is not a single thing on Youtube right now. I'll post up a report.

It's Nice

A friend of mine had one of those. It was nice. The real "Problem" with them for the big time shooters was the trigger. It wasn't as good as the other high end guns so it didn't last. Money isn't a problem for that crowd. That said, it is a great gun for most of us.

Enjoy!

Lock and Load! :D
