Design and handling

Ergonomics are central to why the BROWNING SILVER feels balanced on the shoulder. The semi-humpback receiver contributes to a natural sight plane, while the gold-colored trigger offers tactile feedback and a premium look without compromising durability. The Mossy Oak Bottomland stock provides grip and recoil management for long days in the field.

Active Valve gas system — how it helps

The self-adjusting Active Valve gas system uses gas from fired shells to drive the action rather than adding to felt recoil. The Active Valve-equipped gas piston automatically adjusts to reliably cycle a wide range of loads, from light target loads to heavier hunting loads. For shooters who switch ammunition types during a season, that adaptability reduces the need for manual adjustments and enhances follow-up shot consistency.

Practical benefits

– Cleaner, cooler cycling compared to direct-impingement designs.
– Reduced felt recoil, improving shot recovery and pattern tracking.
– Reliable function across different ammunition makes the Silver a true semi auto in the “Semi Auto” category.

Field model finish and fit

The silver and matte bi-tone receiver combined with a blued barrel creates a tasteful, utilitarian appearance. The Mossy Oak Bottomland stock is chosen for real-world concealment and grip in wet conditions. These features, along with the gold-colored trigger and semi-humpback receiver, make the Silver stand out in both looks and function.
