Description:
OVERVIEW
The 1989 Browning 325 (a Citori variant built by Miroku in Japan) is highly praised by wingshooters and clay target competitors. The 30" 12-gauge model is particularly celebrated for its durability, crisp adjustable triggers, and smooth, steady swing.
Key Specifications & Features
- Receiver & Build: Built "like a vault" with traditional chopper-lump barrels. Early models feature the standard Invector choke system, later shifting to Invector-Plus.
- Handling: The 30" barrels offer a fluid, heavy swing that absorbs recoil exceptionally well, making it a favorite for sporting clays and trap.
- Weight: ~ 7 lbs 11 oz to 8 lbs, depending on the exact wood density.
- Pros: Legendary reliability, timeless craftsmanship, and strong resale value. It features an excellent ejector system and highly predictable lock-up. [1, 2, 3]
Because it was built before production transitioned to monoblock construction (in the later 425 series), the 325 holds a unique spot in Browning's lineup for quality and rarity.
