Found my Superposed

[87Ford]

Finally came across a Browning Superposed configured just as I've been looking for.  Picked it up last month and I'm still pretty excited about it, so thought I'd post a pic.  It won't replace my Benelli, but it will definitely see some action on pheasants next year..
1958 20 gauge
28" barrels
LTRK
Full, Mod
Unaltered chokes and all original

Beautiful gun, does it shoot as nice as it looks  . Good luck next fall!

Very nice looking, I've worn out three Browning's because I shoot a lot 10-15K a year. The two parts listed here are ones you should have on hand they retain the ejectors in the receiver EJECTOR RETAINING PIN SCREW P/N B1334114, EJECTOR EXTENSION SCREW P/N B1334110. I have spares with me at all the shoots I attend to repair my current Browning 525 or help another shooters.

Great shotgun

I've been shooting  a 20ga Superpose Lightning 1967 for about 20yrs now.   It started as a 28" M&F but I've had the stock fitted to me and opened the chokes to SK-II(3/8ths) and IM(3/4).  It is a pheasant hunting machine and it is almost unfair to take it n the field.  Mine weighs n at 6 lb. 3 oz. what a pleasure to hunt with, wish it had double triggers instead of a selector.

Very nice gun! Your going to love it,I got my first O/U in 1992,I have 5 now,for upland birds there is nothing better IMO.

Thanks guys for the comments..

It's been on my bucket list the last few years to own a Superposed in decent condition like this one.  I've been searching and, needless to say, was a bit surprised to stumble upon this one in this condition and at a reasonable price.  The dealer had it graded at 80%.  I think it's a bit better than that and when I checked the serial number and confirmed it's vintage I grabbed it.  It's year of manufacture is 1958, so there are no salt wood worries.  Anyway, here's one more pic of the stock..complete with original horn butt plate.

I'm always amazed at how meticulous gun grading can be. If that's only 80%, my hunting rifle is like a -45%

Wow, that's just plain Cool.   Very beautiful.

Great.  Now we need to start the SxS vs O/U argument!  Haha.   While I love O/U's, they just aren't a SxS! ;-)

[merkelman]

No, no, not starting this argument... I will let you begin. Lol!  However, own and shoot them both!  Here's an old photo of a mint model 24 in 20 gauge. Nostalgic!
