The receiver of a shot gun is the part that receives the shell when you put it in the chamber. It is the part that contains the trigger. It is between the stock and the barrel. I know what it is I am just trying to find a short way to explain it, but I can't really.

Where is the receiver on a browning shotgun?

The receiver is the largest metal piece of the shotgun, in other words, the frame of the shotgun. All the other parts, such as barrel, stock, bolt, etc- attach to the receiver. With modern firearms, the receiver will be marked with the serial number. Legally, the receiver IS the firearm- all other parts are simply parts.
