Sean Richo Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Just to throw a spanner in the works I remember reading somewhere that all Brownings are finished off by hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harnser Posted December 15, 2015 Report Share Posted December 15, 2015 Just to throw a spanner in the works I remember reading somewhere that all Brownings are finished off by hand? Correct . They rub a bit of polish on the stocks . Harnser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B25Modelman Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) Just to throw a spanner in the works I remember reading somewhere that all Brownings are finished off by hand? They are not assembled by robots yet. As far as I can determine from catalogues, the 525 and 725 were the Citori's and as already stated, made far east.

Westward Posted December 16, 2015 Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 All factory produced Browning O/Us have been built by Miroku since the early 70s and that includes the Cynergy models. The B125 is assembled in Belgium from Miroku supplied action parts and the B25 family are hand built. Belgian Brownings use FN supplied barrel sets and woodwork.
