Hi guys, it's been a good while since I posted here last. I've spent my last 10 wee at lovely Ft. Leonard Wood MO, screaming "Kill Kill Kill" And learning to shoot, move and communicate. Anyway, comming back from army basic training left me a richer man, and to day on my first day back I went out to a sporting goods store.
At the store, the 4 guns they had that I liked were, a Rem. 870 express, a Ruger 22 Hornet, a Win 30/30 and a Browning BPS stalker. After looking at them all I finally desided upon the BPS(12 gauge). Problem is I don't really know much about this gun. It's got a nice dull blue finish, bead sight, and 2 hunting scenes etched on both sides of the action. It's also the 3" version and has a 28 inch barrel. The 870 would of cost me $230, but I had the extra money so I went for the browning which was priced at $480. I didn't shop around, but I'm not to concerned about paying a bit extra because I've always gotten good service and advise at this store. Plus the guy who was selling it to me felt that the BPS was easily the better firearm.
Well enough of my rambling, if any of you guys own one, or know it, could you let me into the pro's/con's of this guy, plus any problems I might have with it out of the box and in the long run.
Thanks
Sincerely,
Adam
