Anyone own one? Thoughts?
Interesting that Browning was aiming specifically at SxS/O/U game guns in the creation of this gun. Does the balance and shootability really resemble a "game gun"

I've never owned one but I have shot'em. My best recollection is it certainly handled better than an A-5 but nothing like a sxs. Cool loading function; the shells seemed to get plucked right out of your hand. Kicked a lot...Geo

They do kick. Built on a short recoil system. I've had a Twelvette for over 50years and have just never got attached to it. Neat idea and as George said, I do love the way they reload. Compared to everything else being offered they are a real bargain in the market.

I really like my Twelvette!!
Have three barrels and they interchange in a seconds.
What a fun gun
If you are ever in Amarillo, let me know and we can heat up mine!

I had one. Liked it but not enough to keep it.
