Browning Maxus Ii Maple 12 Gauge 28" Shotgun

The Browning Maxus II Maple 12 Gauge 28" Shotgun is a modern semi-automatic platform engineered for hunters and sport shooters who demand reliable performance across varied shot conditions. Built on proven inertia-driven action principles, this 12-gauge delivers consistent cycling whether you're working upland game, waterfowl, or competitive clay courses. The 28-inch barrel strikes the optimal balance between swing weight and sight radius—a configuration favored by field operators and competitive shooters for its handling and pattern density at standard hunting ranges.

The Maxus II platform features Browning's refined inertia-driven system, which cycles both 2¾ and 3-inch ammunition loads reliably while minimizing felt recoil and mechanical complexity. The Maple furniture—hand-selected and finished for weather resistance—provides superior grip in wet conditions compared to synthetic alternatives, a critical advantage in waterfowl and Pacific Northwest upland hunting. The 28-inch barrel comes threaded for Invector choke tubes, allowing shooters to optimize pattern performance for specific game; the included full choke handles long-range goose work, while IC or modified tubes excel in brush and closer-range applications.

This shotgun suits operators transitioning from pump actions to semi-automatic platforms, particularly those valuing traditional aesthetics over modern tactical furniture. The Maple stock geometry and profile accommodate standard shooting positions without requiring aftermarket pads or adjustments. Maintenance follows Browning's documented protocol—cleaning the inertia system after heavy use preserves reliability; parts are readily sourced through major distributors. Whether you're outfitting a primary hunting shotgun or adding a versatile clay gun to your battery, the Browning Maxus II Maple 12ga 28" delivers proven accuracy and durability in a classic profile.
