BASC’s spring gun draw is now open, offering you a chance to win a premium sporting package worth more than £4,000.
By entering BASC’s spring gun draw, you could win a Browning 825 Sporter adjustable over and under 12 bore with 30-inch barrels. Built on a low-profile steel action, the 825 is designed to enhance control, reduce recoil and promote fast, instinctive target acquisition. Its advanced Fire Lite 2 mechanical trigger system delivers crisp, consistent pulls with a reliable second shot, while the proven full-width hinge pin and locking system ensure long term strength and durability.
Browning’s back-bored barrel technology and extended Invector DS Pro chokes improve shot patterning, increase velocity and help reduce recoil.
Complementing the gun is a Spika S3 12-gun safe, providing secure, police-compliant firearm storage. Built from heavy-duty steel with multiple locking points and a dedicated ammunition compartment, it offers both protection and practicality.
The winner will also receive a fantastic range of accessories, including a Browning Flex Fontainebleau shotgun slip, On-Point shooting glasses and Browning Electronic Ear Defenders BDM, alongside a cap, water bottle and more.
The draw open is now, so enter today to win a top notch, ready-to-go shooting setup, combining quality with performance from trusted brands.
Tickets cost £10, with proceeds supporting the BASC Fighting Fund. Entries close on 30 June 2026.

Government plans have been announced to target game shooting in England and Wales with further unjustified restrictions. We must all fight back.

BASC is urging supporters of sustainable shooting to take immediate action in response to a Wild Justice petition calling for a ban on grouse shooting.
