The Browning B-2000 is a gas-operated 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun produced between 1973 and 1980. Known as Browning's first gas-operated shotgun, it features a unique, reliable gas system located at the end of the magazine tube, a humpback-style receiver, and a specialized speed-loading system. The B-2000 was primarily made in Belgium and assembled in Portugal, often featuring fine French walnut wood. 

Key Features and Details:
  • Production Era: 1973–1980.
  • Operating System: Gas-operated; the gas system is located at the front of the magazine tube rather than in the stock.
  • Speed Load System: Designed for fast, convenient loading through a large port on the side of the receiver.
  • Gauges: Available in 12 and 20 gauge, with Magnum, Trap, and Skeet options.
  • Build Quality: Known for high-quality bluing, French walnut furniture, and hand-done checkering.
  • Disassembly: The barrel and fore-end come off together, and the system relies on a specific O-ring for the gas seal.
  • Collectors' Status: Only 115,000 units were produced before the model was discontinued.
  • Common Configuration:  Most 2000 models are 12 gauge with fixed chokes, as screw-in choke tubes were not common, requiring a new barrel for different choke and capacities.
  • Some models were produced as 3-inch Magnum, while others were 2 3/4-inch.

Maintenance Note:
The gas system requires periodic cleaning at the end of a season for hunters, or more regularly for clay shooters to maintain reliability. 

This is a used item. While we do not test-fire our used firearms, we perform an inspection and function check to ensure they are fully functional to the best of our ability.
