The History of Browning

Browning Arms Company was founded in 1880 by the American John Moses Browning, one of the most, if not the most prolific and influential firearm inventor of all time, with the help of his brothers, in Ogden, Utah. A large portion of John Browning's rifle designs have been acquired and produced by other big-name companies, like Winchester, Colt, Remington, Fabrique Nationale of Belgium, and Miroku. Among his most famous guns produced were the 1895 Colt Peacemaker machine gun, the Browning automatic rifle, the .45-caliber pistol, a variety of .30- and .50-caliber machine guns used in World War II; and the Browning Automatic-5 shotgun first introduced in 1902 and still produced to this day. Beside firearms, Browning is also a manufacturer of various other products, such as gun knives, shooting accessories, bicycles, and clothing. In 1977 the Belgian firearms manufacturer Fabrique Nationale (FN) purchased the Browning Company. In 1987 the US Repeating Arms Company (Winchester) was purchased from its former owners. The Winchester brand (licensed from Olin Corporation) was acquired at the same time by FN. In 1990, Société Générale sold the FN company to GIAT Industries.

In 1997, the entire FN family of companies (including Browning and the Winchester) was bought from GIAT by the government of a Belgian region named Waloon and was renamed to Groupe Herstal.

Browning European Rifle Review

Browning European is a bolt-action repeating rifle first introduced 1992. It was specifically designed, as its name suggests, for the European market. In many ways it is like the A-Bolt model, featuring a bolt with three locking lugs that reduces the turn needed to operate the bolt to 60 degrees. The two-position safety catch is located on the neck of the stock, just behind the bolt, and readies the rifle to fire when pushed forward.

Additionally, it features a removable magazine that slides off the plate when the magazine button at the front of the trigger guard is pressed. The rifle comes with a single set trigger, pre-installed open sights, and a free floated barrel. On the top of the receiver there are four holes for mounting purposes.
