The Sporting configuration pairs 30 in ported barrels with ventilated top and side ribs, back-bored bores, and lengthened forcing cones. The system uses Browning's Invector-DS extended choke tubes with knurled rims and laser-etched constriction markings on the rim/body (e.g., SK, M, F) for easy identification; all caps share the same gold/orange anodized color. It is compatible with F, SK, IM, IC, and M constrictions; this sale includes SK, M, and F tubes.
The receiver wears a durable silver nitride finish and is clearly marked "725" with the gold Browning Buckmark. Controls are straightforward: a mechanical single trigger and a top-tang safety/selector that lets you choose barrel order. Selective ejectors are fitted and timed.
The stock set is checkered walnut with a pistol-grip and beavertail forend. Right-hand ergonomics include a palm swell and slight cast-off, and an Inflex II recoil pad. Length of pull is 14.75 in.
Mechanical condition is strong: barrel fit is tight with 100% locking lug life, the firing pins appear pristine, and the ejectors are properly timed. The shotgun is chambered for 2 3/4 in and 3 in shells and has a capacity of 2 rounds. A green fiber-optic front bead is installed, and HiViz fiber-optic sight inserts are included.
