The Maxus Sporting uses Browning's Power Drive gas system for smooth, reliable operation and has a 3-round capacity. A cross-bolt safety provides familiar control placement. The Speed-Lock forearm latch enables tool-less takedown of the forearm for quick maintenance and choke changes.
The 28" Vector Pro overbored barrel with a long forcing cone is paired with a ventilated rib and a red fiber-optic front bead for fast target acquisition. The barrel is threaded for the Invector-Plus system, and this shotgun includes extended M, IM, and LF chokes to tailor patterns for sporting applications.
The silver/gray aluminum-alloy receiver is factory engraved with full-coverage scrollwork and gold clay-target and bird accents, along with "Sporting Clays" legends. A jeweled (engine-turned) bolt and a gold-colored trigger add to the Sporting trim details. Markings on the barrel near the chamber include "Designed at FN Herstal Belgium, Browning Arms Company Morgan, Utah"; the receiver bears only the factory scroll engraving with "Sporting Clays" legends and the serial number.
The stock is gloss walnut with checkering on the pistol grip for secure handling and features Browning's Inflex recoil pad. Length of pull measures 14.25" for a comfortable, balanced mount. The combination of wood, finish, and Sporting details gives this example a refined, purpose-built presentation.
This Maxus Sporting is chambered for both 2 3/4" and 3" shells. The serial format indicates Maxus model coding (115) and 2014 production (ZW = 14), aligning it with the Sporting series features and engraving package.
