Shotguns Descriptions
Browning Maxus Hunter
MAXIMUM RELIABILITY. MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE. Real-world reliability is the most important feature any manufacturer can build into a firearm. Thats why it was the first priority when we set about developing the Browning Maxus. The Power Drive Gas System is designed to perform under harsh hunting and shooting conditions with a wide array of loads. But reliability isnt the whole story. The Maxus delivers 18% less felt recoil for greater comfort, 44% less muzzle jump for more accurate follow-up shots, 19% faster bolt speed and 24% faster locktime than the nearest competitor. Unequalled reliability and features, all found in the finest, most reliable gas-operated autoloader ever to swing on a bird.
Merkel 2001EL-Sport
Merkel set the world standard as the first manufacturer to produce over and under sporting guns in the late 1800's. These elegant shotguns have exceptional balance and superb handling characteristics. The slender Merkel three-piece forearm is designed to provide the shooter with a quick responsive shotgun with natural pointability. All over under models are hand engraved and are stocked with highly figured Luxury grade wood. All Merkel shotguns are equipped with cold hammer forged barrels which have higher surface hardness that extend the life of the bores and chokes. The super rigid Kersten crossbolt mechanism is one of the most safe and reliable methods of locking the barrel to the receiver of an over under shotgun. One hundred years of continuous refinement have led to the introduction of the new 2000EL series over under shotguns. This new design combines the aesthetic beauty of handcrafted engraving and hand checkering with the precision machining and exact tolerances offered by the latest CNC and EDM production technologies. The new action features an Anson & Deely style boxlock action and has a unique disconnectable ejector system which gives the user the option of selecting automatic ejector or extractor operation on this shotgun model. Kersten double crossbolt lock. Features: Action- Modified Anson & Deeley boxlock, Case Ejection- Coil spring ejectors, convertible to extractor, Barrel- Cold hammer forged steel, demibloc construction, solid sighting rib, Engraving- Light Arabesque.
