so, is that the same gun just without the engraving?
Browning Gold-Golden Clays

The o/u guns are very popular and rightly so, but for sure they are not the only way to go. Auto loaders are affordable, reliable, comfortable to shoot and are the choice of many top ranked shooters. Drop into a few sporting matches and see for yourself.
Even though I love my 391s I think that the Browning Gold is a fine choice.
Be sure to give a report. Hope she went bang everytime today!! Also, heard a rumor you really did well with the wood.
Golden Clays
Well it is always exciting taking a brand new shotgun out to shoot some sporting clays.
I had heard that it is usually best to break in an auto with some heavy 1 1/8oz loads, so that what were the first 50 shells were.
After that I shot a wide variety of ammo, 1oz and 24gram International, all shot and cycled well. This gun swings and points very nicely for me, but I need to add some length as I'm 6' 5" tall.
I thought the 30 inch barrel might take some getting used to but I had no trouble breaking a variety of targets. I was in such a hurry to get out and shoot it I forgot to bring the extra chokes so shot at all the birds with the mod choke.
Right now I have a nice coat of the Howard Feed-N-Wax on the very nice wood that came on this shotgun. Wipe off the excess in the morning and buff the wax.
These guns seem to be a great buy at $1499 and if you were to get a Beretta of a benelli brand new, of course they are quite a few hundred dollars more, plus the porting helps some on fast following shots on true pairs. FS
