I haven't heard many that have one dislike them. I have the Gun Unlimited unsingle adjustable rib. I love the gun. 3 years , and over 30,000 rounds, nothing but cleaning it.

 

Same here !

 

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.

 

I know of several. I have also replaced hammer springs etc.(routine maintenance) they look good inside and are reliable ,priced right and have all the adjustments. Nice guns !

 

Thanks everyone, I thought there may be some serious flaw I hadn't heard of.

 

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.

 

Love mine.

 

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 had one a few years, no issues replaced the old comb hardware and recoil pad.
No trigger problems I shoot a double release.

 

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 .

 

My boy shoots his a ton and it’s what 90% of his high school team mates shoot. Excellent value for money, terrific barrel regulation… Very Solid gun… Wouldn’t hesitate a second in buying one

 

I also have the GU trap combo with their adjustable comb and gracoil. I totally agree with all the previous comments. A real pleasure to shoot.

 

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 .

 

Really enjoy my GU 725 combo. No issues as of yet.

 

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

 

Yep, Had one of the originals and the adjustable comb was junk. Swapped that out and it was a goer. If you look around a bit, some of stocks on the originals were outstanding looking. My wood was beautiful!

 

Browning’s are good guns for the money. The original Browning comb hardware sucks but you can avoid that by buying one from Guns Unlimited with their hardware, and if the trigger isn’t to your liking have a gunsmith correct it for you. Get one new and you won’t live long enough to wear it out. Good Luck!

 

Agree with all...........

 

I use mine for both trap and skeet. On skeet it is easy to "trap" the trigger on doubles. Browning guns are known for this problem.

 

The early 725 models had some troubles with the triggers. Browning claims that the 725 has mechanical triggers. This is not the case. When Browning first introduced the 725, their were a few issues with some guns triggers. Not all of the early production guns had issues. Only some of them. Browning fixed the issue rather quickly. If you look at Briley's website, you will notice that Briley charges extra money to convert the 725 triggers, if you ever plan on having the 410 sub-gauge tube-sets installed on your 725 shotgun. So the trigger in the 725 is not the same as the standard Citori shotgun line. The 725 has a more complicated trigger shall we say.
Other than this issue, which is rather minor IMO. The shotgun is a workhorse and will last longer than you will. Maintenance is rather light and inexpensive to care for as well. Whether you do the work, or pay to have the work done for you.
If your in the market to buy any Browning shotgun, I suggest you contact Guns Unlimited. Great prices, and their gunsmith can install adj. butt plates, and combs with top notch hardware. The comb's hardware on factory Browning's are cheap!!! break em all Jeff

 

I’ve been wondering about the 725’s too. Good info here.

 

Beasty1 I have the 725 trap adjustable or pro trap it’s been very good to me also as I have 50,000 plus rounds shot with it I do my own maintenance and have had no trouble with the adjustable comb you have to use the right tools on the older ones like mine . I have all the weights in the stock that come with it for 9.1 lbs I shoot trap and skeet with it .

 

Been 6 months, wonder if the OP bought one?
