Browning's Gold Light is a proven standard for auto loading performance featuring Browning's speed loading, with the action open. The first shell inserted into the magazine is sent directly to the chamber, ready to be fired. There is less recoil with the active valve, using gas from fired shells to operate the action instead of contributing to recoil. Because the active valve expels unnecessary gases, it naturally reduces recoil before it ever reaches your shoulder. The Gold Light also features a magazine cut-off, and is equipped with the Invector-Plus choke tube system.
