Brownings etc

JM I used to have a gunshop for a lot of years and after approx 10 yrs I quit selling them. Their customer service left a lot to be disired...in fact it was nonexistent. I personally had a 4 bbl skeet set and there weren't 2 bbls out of the 8 that shot to the same point of impact. Browning just told me ..oh ,well! They said they wouldn't fix it. I also had a friend with a Beretta that was somewht the same and they wouldn't fix it either...But they did give some lip service to the problem and a new set of bbls that were the worst. Browning just said you bought it so its your problem. Dumped that one on the market pretty quickly and had a customer who bought a Browning from another dealer that had an egg shaped chamber. So bad that you couldn't run the empty into a Mec 600 Jr resizer die. Wouldn't fix that either..so I refused to sell the darn things new and when I got one on trade I always sold it for what I paid for it. Some people got some good deals from me I guess but I always told them I was not responsible for any problems they had with the gun..in writing.
Back to the reason for this post...I'll be picking the guns up in a couple of weeks so I'll be able to tell y'all what model it is.
