| Mine was ordered back in February and is the 26" barrel. I was not expecting it arrive until January 2017. Since Browning has a $100 rebate ending 12/31/16. I'm very pleased with the fit & finish and can't wait to get it out and shoot some trap |

| I'm in the process of moving so I can't weight yet. The one design that has me a little concerned is the forearm it is extremely thin. Once in place is well supported but needs to be handled very carefully to prevent cracking when off the gun. |

Great news. I'm on a list with six dealers in South Dakota. I called all six yesterday. Only one dealer received two guns. I am number 4 on his list  . They all said they were told January of 2017. How much do you want for yours?  |

I am both happy for those that now get one and jealous!
I will need to wait till at least mid January now that we are moving and buying a house (no crazy purchases during the buy).
I did make my wife happy yesterday though, I traded in 3 guns I don't really ever use and picked up a dedicated trap gun without costing a penny more. It's a early 1970's type 3 Charles Daly Venture Trap that seems to be practically brand new. Fit very nice, already working on collecting up a set of pins and springs for it. |
