I was thinking of buying one of these this fall, but there seems to be allot of dislike for the 725 overall, can anyone tell me why?

I haven’t really heard of many dislikes either. I love my 725 and same as Dustydoo, just shoot, clean and repeat. No issues.

I've got a GU 725 Trap Combo and it's a go-to shooter. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another one. If someone else didn't like a 725 that's just fine, it means there's another one on the market one of us can pick up.
What’s No to like, my 725 Pro is awesome …No issues at all at least 20,000 rounds nothing but cleaning.
Suggest you look at the Guns Unlimited 725 Combo With adjustable comb and Gracoil.
Good guns, nothing wrong with them (except for pad which is easily changed). Before buying anything, check out the Guns Unlimited 725 Adjustable COMBO. Compared to the cost of the Max and Pro series 725's you can get the combo for a little more and it's a one-gun for everything deal.
Talk to Matt at GU. He is awesome to deal with!!

Brownings are highly reliable and I will always own a Browning! The trigger is the only weakness in the ones I have owned/shot when compared to the crisp triggers of some other trap guns. Many of us don't experience these differences until you actually own and shoot a gun with a good trigger.

I think the original ones you had to adjust the comb through the recoil pad. I've heard of a number of complaints on that. I think Browning changed that now so the comb is adjusted by the holes in the side of the butt stock like most guns. I also can recommend Guns Unlimited Omaha. I bought a 725 Trap combo from them. Adjustable Gracoil butt plate, comb, and adjustable rib on the
un-single barrel. I think they have an adjustable rib on both barrels now. Very happy with mine.

I have a 725 trap for 5 years now . It’s the first time I’ve had a gun of any kind where I can think of something else I’d rather have .

The only known problems I am aware of was there was a run many years back where some stocks cracked . Also, the bottom firing pin can pierce cheddite primers and that can erode the firing pin tip . Replacement firing pins are about $10. I replaced the first one myself. There is a YouTube on it and even a guy with bad hand tremors (like me) can do it easily .
Some Guys that load less than 1 oz loads have had trouble with getting the second barrel to fire on doubles . Personally, I have not had this issue loading 7/8 oz at 1175 fps. I have shot 3/4 oz at 1275 on skeet without issue.
I love mine . Wouldn’t trade it .

Ive had mine going on 3 years, probably close to 6,000 through it, no problems. It’s a good gun.
