Just out of curiosity, if someone like Browning made an over under shotgun in stainless steel with a composite stock, would you be interested. Ruger tried years ago but it failed to catch on.

why bother...
few use an o/u for waterfowl and that's the
reason for stainless and plastic, right?
me, I enjoy a nice bluing and fine wood...
dove, quail and clays...
the painted and plastic guns are better suited for rain, mud and salt marsh...

I have one of the Ruger Red Label 12 ga O/U in stainless/synthetic. Absolutely bombproof gun!! I love it!! Have been offered twice what I paid for it on multiple occasions and it is NOT for sale!!! Some may say not as pretty as wood/blue....beauty is in the eye of the gun holder...
I too like the classic look of wood/blue, but this is definitely a unique shotgun. Glad I picked it up when I had the chance (12 (?) or so years ago??).

If you are looking for a OU waterfowl gun that is affordable, check out the TriStar Hunter Mag. Shoots 3.5" in duck blind camo and is pretty cool. Have almost bought one....twice.

Well my Browning Cynergy O/U Waterfowl addition comes in tomorrow..

I'm pretty excited about it.

I plan to test it out on dove and waterfowl this year.

I have a 3” blued Cynergy and a 3.5” Cynergy in MODB. If Browning made an all stainless Cynergy then I would definitely want one. The stainless Rugers are beautiful in my opinion. It might be a bit too shiny to be a good waterfowl gun but I’d still give it a try. Maybe a matte stainless for waterfowl and a polished version for everything else.

maybe, but you asked and I responded
and back a few yrs, the only plastic guns we could shoot involved a trip to the courthouse and
basic training

I bought a cynergy in max 5 28in barrels yes ago. Fwbanger used to have a pic of his in his avatar. That got my brain hooked just seeing the picture of one. Its killed a lot of ducks at this point. All I shoot is o/u.

not interested. just a little bit of periodic cleaning will keep a gun in good condition.

Man I'm super pumped to try it out. My buddy owns a little gun shop in Tuscola and he wanted one of my pups. He asked if there was a gun I wanted? I had been wanting one for a while but didn't really need another gun. This one was the first one that popped in my mind and he said "deal".

My beautiful twin sisters. The stainless receiver is nice but an entirely stainless Cynergy would be stunning IMO. However, the contrasting stainless/blue still looks nice.

Jealous!!! Been looking at these for the past year or so and am pretty well sold. Can't seem to find anyone here in East Texas that has one for sale though....
