I had one in the 90's ,my one was a rare F1 trap 32" matt barrels ,I won a lot of comp's back then it was an awesome gun I shot with Sellier & Bellot super trap 8'S & still do👌 . it was 3/4 full ,then I decided to Teague it it ruined it it never shot the same again ( GREAT GUN) Had it delivered of Avalon guns Andy!

I have B125 D grade Sporter, 28" fixed choke, 1987 gun, original bill of sale receipt for just over £5000, so I'd imagine the F1 was more than he reckons new back in the day. The gun was made by Miroku in the white and sent to FN for engraving and finishing, has the same forend as the Browning B25, not 3 piece, as the entire forend stays fixed on the barrel's unlike the 3 piece where the actual forend is split. The 2 massive issues with these guns were, American Walnut used to split alot especially around the top tang and forend, also the barrel's were not chrome lined in those days and a lot rotted out due to poor gun maintenance. That said, mine is used for instructing purposes and it's a lovely looking solid gun for both clay and game.

Browning owner here in California. I have a 1951 Superposed Trap model 30" fixed chokes full/half (modified). I also have a 1967 Superposed Silver Pigeon Trap model with aftermarket interchangeable chokes. I'm not sure what the British designation is for the Superposed line but these are both, obviously, Belgian FN guns with the same type of forend. 73 years old (older than me by a few years) and 57 years old, these are my "go to" shooters at the field for trap and American skeet. I have absolutely no qualms about putting lots of rounds through them in spite of their age. Subscribed and thanks for your work!

I’m 40. My dad’s citori is older than I am; grew up shooting it. Seems pistol grip is same size to me as new citori I bought this year

Still opens and shuts like the first day i bought it b125 nice companion ,thanks for the opportunity

Another Great Video David 💯 Thanks for Sharing 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

Very nice! Ventilated barrels, ahead of its time. Lovely looking shotgun. Who needs more?!

I had one in the nineties a trap f1 32 inch beautiful gun a bit light weight when shooting a lot barrel s made ringing sound when fired and fore end did crack eventually

That’s a beauty! Never shot a B125 but recently bought a mint 63 yr old B25 for the same cost of a new mossberg 500 and I consider that the steal of the century! Beautiful used quality firearms are an amazing value at the moment! 👍🏼

Wow man... how did you manage to do that! Lucky you😮!

My first shotgun was browning b325 which I bought years ago I think In the early nineties I think. I still have it and touch wood it still shoots as good today as it did then, it's only needed one trip to the gun shop for a worn piece in the mechanism which is to be expected. Other than that it's perfect. It is only a grade 1 but back then it was all I could afford at £700 secondhand. The f1 looks a lovely gun with its 32 inch barrels the same as my b325. Back when I first shot at clays they would take the mick at the length of my gun saying if I missed I could still knock them down with the end of the barrels😂26-28inch being the gun of choice back then but look what alot of clay shooters are shooting nowadays, maybe I was ahead of my time😉

I have a Miroku 9000 sporter 35 years old , shot thousands of cartridges and still is in immaculate condition.. have you ever tried one?

I have Cz from 1956 and still hunt with it. Came to me from my grandpa.

It would be helpful to discuss the significant differences between this gun and a modern Browning

Haha,i have ashotgun that is about the same age.The buttstock was totally crapp.Looked like someone tied it to a car and went to the motorway.But i only payed 99 Euros.I grinded the stock and oiled it and now it looks almost brandnew.Only had to repair the hammer of the lower barrel and now it shoots perfectly.Super bargain made on E Gun.

Between 1983 & 1984 people had slightly smaller hands ! Not a lot of people know that

Still better than a yildiz and will outlast one .

most 1980s guns will worth what they where new on the 2nd hand market now but with some like say the AYA no4 which is now 8k new back then they where £500

Should just change your name to the yildiz browning blaser castellani channel

'Plain engraving rather than actual engraving' - so, just... not engraved..?
