The Browning Cynergy CX represents a significant advancement in over/under shotgun design, combining the versatility needed for both sporting clays and waterfowl hunting in a single platform. This 12-gauge shotgun features Browning's innovative crossover barrel design that delivers consistent patterns across multiple shooting disciplines.
What Makes This Different
The Cynergy CX incorporates Browning's reverse striker ignition system, which places the firing pins in the trigger assembly rather than the receiver. This design reduces lock time by 24% compared to traditional hammer-fired systems, resulting in faster ignition and improved accuracy. The silver nitride receiver finish provides superior corrosion resistance while maintaining the classic aesthetic that defines Browning firearms.
Key Features
- Crossover barrel design optimized for both target sports and field hunting
- 28-inch blued barrels with 3-inch chamber capability for versatile load options
- Silver nitride finished receiver resists corrosion and wear
- Grade I black walnut stock with oil finish and checkered grip areas
- Reverse striker firing system reduces lock time for faster ignition
- Mechanical trigger system ensures consistent pull weight
- Triple Trigger System allows for three trigger pull weight options
The Cynergy CX excels in demanding field conditions where reliability cannot be compromised. The extended chambers accommodate both 2¾-inch and 3-inch shells, making it equally effective for dove hunting with light loads and waterfowl hunting with heavy steel shot. The barrel regulation ensures tight patterns at sporting clays distances while maintaining effective spread for upland game.
