Shotguns Descriptions
Browning Silver Hunter
The Browning(R) Silver Hunter(TM) Matte is a lightweight, fast handling semi-auto shotgun that's designed with upland bird hunting in mind; though its self-adjusting Active Valve gas system increases its versatility to include most any type of wing shooting or shooting sport. The Active Valve gas system vents excess gas out the top of the forearm, and away from the receiver for clean, reliable operation with 2-3/4" and 3" shells, without the need or adjustment. The Silver Hunter Matte model comes with a matte blued barrel, a 2-tone silver/black receiver, and a checkered Turkish walnut stock with a brown, ventilated recoil pad. The semi-humpback receiver design with a ventilated rib and brass front bead creates a sight picture that's quick to pick up and swing on moving targets. The barrel comes back bored and threaded for Browning's Invector-Plus choke tubes (includes IC, M, & F) to deliver consistently tight shot patterns. The low recoiling Browning Silver Hunter Matte Semi-Auto Shotgun allows for fast follow-up shots and all-day shooting comfort on the clays range or wing shooting.Lightweight and fast handling2-tone silver/black receiverBlued barrelTurkish walnut stockVentilated recoil padActive Valve gas systemCycles 2-3/4" and 3" shellsVent rib and brass front beadInvector-Plus choke tubesBack bored barrel
Darne V
Darne is one of arm's manufacturer in Saint-Etienne FRANCE. Thanks to its simplicity, eleganceand resistance, the model V established the principle and the notoriety of fixed barrel guns. It's main characteristic is a sliding-breech activated by a key-lever, easily open with two fingers to load it. A simple forward motion with the palm of hand, lock the mechanism smoothly. The sliding-breech is held aligned to the barrels by compression. Heaspaces are extremely tight for a better range and the lowest recoil, due to convergent obturator disks. Percussion is ensured by two arming nuts acting on sears top. The security of this mechanism is reinforced by a double safety triggers preventing accidental firing caused by a shock. Fine adjustment of the firing pins allow smoother firing. The safety, activated by a button on side of breech, command sears in cocking position, is safer that usual safety triggers. The impossibility to keep fingers on triggers during loading action is definitively safer. As a matter of fact the only way to load a Darne Model V is to lock the breechblock by pushing the key lever, with a natural motion of the hand. All Darne guns come with an automatic and selector ejectors. They are composed by two classic extractors and by two hooks pulling out fired shells, at the end of breech-block course. Darne barrels are bored in special steel tubes, polished in length, soft soldered at low temperature to preserve steel structure and covered with several bronze coatings. So, these barrels have a high ballistic efficiency. Three types of ribs can be proposed; decreasing rib also called "plume" rib, straight rib or inversed tiles rib. Stock and fore-end are selected walnut, dried in ours workshops, are made by hand, with half-pistol or english straight-grip with checkering pattern. Delivery time is about 9 months.
