*SOLD* Browning BPS 20 Ga. Blue 28" *HUNTER/FIELD MODEL PUMP ACTION SHOTGUN*
Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Browning BPS is far from an ordinary pump shotgun—it's a masterpiece of craftsmanship and artistry. The fully engraved model stands out with beautifully detailed scenes on both sides of the machined steel receiver, giving the shotgun a distinctive personality and transforming it into more than just a tool for shooting. Where most pump shotguns are purely utilitarian, the BPS becomes an heirloom, an object to be passed down through generations. Its engraving work elevates it from a firearm to a work of art, making it a true collector's piece that embodies both function and elegance.
Beneath its aesthetic beauty lies a rugged, reliable pump-action mechanism built to last. The BPS is constructed with the durability you'd expect from Browning, with a receiver machined from a solid block of forged steel and double heat-treated steel slide bars that prevent twisting and binding for smoother, faster operation. The blued finish, deep and polished to perfection, not only enhances its visual appeal but also protects the steel surfaces from wear and corrosion. The dual action bars ensure that the slide and bolt remain perfectly aligned during operation, providing a smooth, precise action that feels more akin to a fine over-under shotgun than a typical pump. The BPS is a refined blend of artistry and rugged engineering, built to perform reliably in any condition, all while offering a level of craftsmanship that makes every shot feel like part of a legacy.
