Well my dad is turning 58 this December, and I decided I wanted to do something special for him. He has a couple of awesome Browning's that have has some trouble in the recent years. The first is a .22lr autoloader takedown model that was passed down to him from his father after it went through all of my uncles, and of course it went through me and my brothers as well. It used to be a tack driver, but not so much anymore. your lucky to hold a 1/2" group at 25 yards now.
I recently found a website that has new barrels for these for $118.00! couple of springs and parts and it will be working like a brand new rifle!
The Second is a good ole' Browning A5 Light 12 with a gold trigger. This is by far the best shotgun I have ever had the pleasure of shooting. He got this gun and a Ruger Blackhawk .357 for painting an uncles house. About a year later that same uncle comes down to do some clay pigeon shooting with a $2500 over n under. At the end of the day he wanted to trade my dad gun for gun... it didn't happen. Recently this gun has been jamming the barrel down into the receiver after a few shots. After doing some research I decided to replace the Brass friction ring and recoil spring to see if this fixes the issue.
After all is said and done it will take only $180 bucks for parts, and two of his favorite guns will be shooting like new again!
