This is a fine Browning Model 325 Sporting Clays Shotgun in 12 gauge, manufactured by Browning (Miroku) in Japan. The serial number 49944PN confirms production in 1989, as verified by Browning’s serialization records, with the “PN” code indicating the year. The Model 325, part of Browning’s Citori series and a predecessor to the 425 and 525, was designed specifically for sporting clays, building on the legacy of John M. Browning’s B25 Superposed. Introduced in the late 1980s, it features a low-profile receiver and the versatile Invector choke system, making it ideal for competitive shooting and upland game. The coin-finished receiver is adorned with detailed game scene engravings of Quail, Ducks, Pheasants, and a Hunting Dog, adding artistic elegance. Its historical significance lies in its role as a purpose-built sporting clays shotgun, reflecting Browning’s commitment to blending tradition with modern performance for shooters.

This example is in good condition, with a professionally repaired crack from the upper rear tang to the lower rear tang, ensuring structural integrity. The 28" competition wide vent rib barrels show slight finish loss at the muzzle for 2" due to moisture but retain excellent bright bores, indicating minimal use and careful maintenance. The highly figured oil-finished checkered walnut stock, with a 14 5/8" adjustable LOP, 1 1/2" DAC, 2" DAH, and neutral cast, is superb with minor bruises, showcasing its quality. Weighing 7 lbs 8 oz, the shotgun is well-balanced, and the single selective adjustable trigger and automatic ejectors function flawlessly. All markings are crisp and legible.
