The Browning Maxus II Hunter Maple 12 gauge shotgun with a 28-inch barrel (Browning part no. 011778204) is a gas-operated autoloader that puts a gloss maple stock against a black anodized receiver and matte blued barrel. Browning tunes the Power Drive gas system to cycle a wide range of loads and cut felt recoil, and the Lightning Trigger gives it a fast lock time. The maple stock is shim-adjustable for length of pull, cast and drop, and a fiber-optic front sight and ivory mid-bead help with target acquisition. It is a handsome field gun for upland hunting and sporting clays.
