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 147E

Side-by-side shotguns are very popular, and not only with traditionalists. The elegance and finesse of these fine guns highlight their classic lines. Hunters will find this side-by-side a light and remarkably responsive gun with outstanding shooting performance. The forged action with Greener-style cross bolt and double conventional bottom bite underscores the robustness of the Merkel system. Merkel forges the receivers in three sizes to match the three available calibers. This is one reason every Merkel side-by-side shotgun has such a slim, balanced appearance. Classic among classics, Merkel boxlock shotguns represent all the qualities discerning sportsman seek in fine double guns. Locking mechanism: Anson Deeley lockwork.
