Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Browning’s entry into the pump market dates back to 1977 when the BPS was introduced. From the start, the BPS was positioned at the higher end of its segment. Even by the standards of its time, when guns were better fit-and-finished than they are now, the BPS stood out from the competition for the quality of its workmanship. It had cut checkering where the 870 Wingmaster had a machine-pressed design, and it had a milled steel receiver in contrast to the alloy receivers of the Mossberg 500 and others. It still stands out from the competition today. What the BPS did not have was an ejection port on the side. It was a bottom-eject model inspired by John Browning’s original design for the Remington Model 17. Bottom-eject pumps drop empties at the shooter’s feet instead of tossing them out the right side of the receiver, which makes them popular with many left-handed shooters as well as those who believe that having one port instead of two helps keep debris out of the gun. Originally introduced in 12 gauge, the BPS has been made in all gauges from 10 to .410, and there has been a wide variety of models to suit every shooter's needs.
