The one I got to test fire seemed to fit a wide variety of folks - tall/short and fat/thin
Personally, I couldn't tell too much difference between it and the 525 (And I STILL thought you hated 12 gauges!) |

read my prior posts regarding the 725. Totally different feel, balance and lighter weight than any previous 12 gauge Citori. Like comparing a mail truck to a Porsche 911...

I don't buy it Slugo, and neither did my gun writer friend who had the gun and has been reviewing guns for decades. There was 1/16" difference in height. He DID like the barrels - said they were closer to his FN Superposeds than the others. No one could tell a difference in the triggers as we had 5 other Brownings there that day.
Overall, a decent gun, and everyone liked the fact for once the price was lower than the previous model. It should last and shoot like any decent Browning O/U has, and if I wasn't looking REAL hard at a Beretta semi, it would definitely be on the short list since Perazzis for me will require a Powerball winning ticket! |

We're happy for you ...congratulations....
I'm sure they'll make a 20ga version by next year ...so leave a little room in the safe...just in case ... ( or maybe by Xmas...)....so it doesn't get lonely in there all by itself. |

Thanks BJP. I'm betting the sub gauge models will be out by years end...

Nice, are you still looking for an 1100 LT20?

zip, not at the moment. I have some guns to sell, then I'll get back to a nice preowned 20 gauge autoloader...
