Buying a used browing bps?

Hunter or Stalker model?
3" or 3 1/2"?
26" or 28" barrel?

Unless he used it as a boat paddle in the marsh, he couldn't hurt the BPS in any shape, form, or fashion.

thanks for the quick replies. looks like the walnut stock. not sure on the length. Is that as good a deal as I think it is?

Wood stock and blues barrel is the hunter model.

Does it come in 3" or 3 1/2" chamber? How old is the gun?

I have the BPS, good gun that has lasted 25 years and still going strong.
I never found a barrel with choke tubes for it so it wears the modified barrel.

Pretty good price.

Here's one in good shape for the same price but you'd have to ship and pay FFL. But should give you a point of reference for condition and such

It really depends on your use of it. If you are going to have it in the marshes or elements a lot, you may want the composite stock instead of the wood. I don't think the age makes a difference if it's in good shape

If the $350 range is your budget, you can buy a brand new 870 Synthetic in 3 1/2" for this price

^ not even close to the same quality. BPS is in another class compared to the express.

$350 is not a bad price for a BPS provided you only need the full and mod barrels. If you could find one with invector or invector plus barrels, that would be a little more useful since you could have more choke choices.
