Silver chloride undergoes photo decomposition when exposed to sunlight. It breaks down into silver and chlorine and the colour of the substance turns grey. That is why we keep them in dark bottles.

Silver chloride is stored in dark coloured bottles because it reacts with sunlight and decomposes to form silver and chlorine gas. So to prevent this it is stored in dark coloured bottles. the type of reaction is photolytic decomposition reaction.
