Specify the style grip you want............." A Special Stock was listed at $15.65 extra. You could also order upgraded wood from $35 to $75.

Is the gun in question marked Browning Arms Co. or FN?
Fabrique Nationale d'Armes de guerre Herstal
Difficult to see but a beautiful FN on the top lever.



I'm not sure but I'm certain you would know,
Where the early Supers barrel stamped differently for the different markets they were to be sold in?

Thanks.
