Strike Silver. With an easily recognizable semi-humpbacked receiver silhouette, Browning’s Silver shotguns perfectly honor the historic Browning legacy. The proven Active Valve system of the Silver is one of the softest recoiling and easiest shooting guns available today, delivering a significant decrease in felt recoil over the competition.
Dressed for the marsh. What sets it apart from other Silvers is the addition of dipped a camo stock and forearm in in the popular and effective Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Habitat pattern. Great concealment with a durable finish. This shotgun is made to be affordable but it still functions at the level you expect from Browning shotguns.
The Active Valve Gas System. The self-adjusting Active Valve Gas System efficiently adjusts to reliably fire a wide range of loads. The piston retains more gas from light loads to aid reliability and vents more gas from heavy loads to lessen felt recoil. Excess gases are vented out the top of the forearm and away from the receiver for cleaner, more reliable operation. Efficient venting of gases reduces felt recoil for faster, more accurate follow-up shots and all-day shooting comfort regardless of the loads being fired. The bolt and bolt slide are coated with a tough, durable phosphate finish.
Interchangeable choke tubes. To maximize versatility and optimize shot pattern performance, Silver shotguns feature the Invector-Plus choke tube system.
Lightweight aluminum alloy receiver with black/charcoal bi-tone finish
Composite stock with textured gripping surfaces and Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Habitat camo finish
Three Invector-Plus choke tubes included (F, M, IC)

12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells. — Craig Boddington
