The browning gold fusion is supposed to be a sporting clays model for the "Gold Family" They lightened it up by puting a light contour barrel on it and utilizing an alloy reciever. I have a browning gold hunter and absolutely love it. It has yet to have any problems after 3-4000 rounds and has never even had a shell stick, even after the famous day that i shot 2 cases through it without cleaning it, and those were dirty little Winchester Western loads. Loved it so much that I bought a Winchester SuperX2, same gas system and most of the same parts as browning, just got a really good deal from a Winchester Rep. My gold is a 20ga and my SX2 is a 12 3.5" mag. I have all my bases covered in two guns.
