Three months ago I bought a stunning looking Browning B725 Grade 3 Hunter. It was more than I had hoped to pay but it was such a beautiful gun and fit me perfectly. First time out and it jammed appropriately 2 dozen times on the second barrel shot. It wasn't a misfire as it just felt as though the safety had engaged. It was returned to Browning and sent back to me within the week. On opening the box I saw that they had split the fore end!! Again it was retuned and it came back to me with a nice bit of matching timber fore end. Next time out it shot like a dream. Time after, second barrel jammed constantly again. I was naturally gutted. Fortunately I had bought it from a fabulous dealer who, after some discussion, we decided I look for something else. I had lost faith and confidence in both that gun an also Browning as a manufacturer. I bought a Beretta 690 Field III (pics below) and does fit me well. I was just interested to see if anyone else has had problems with the B725 Hunter Grade 3. I accept there are bad ones in any brand, a bit like the Friday car (I had a Range Rover that was just that!!) but it really does knock the stuffing out of you. I may have problems with my new gun........ hopefully not.
