Beauty! Just a bit over my budget. I want a 45/70, bad. But so far I haven't been quick enough for the good deals.

I have the same model. It's the most accurate gun I own, and the most beautiful.

Yes nice rifles I got a henry 1892 .44 magum a couple years ago from you. I am stuck on the Browning, do you folks handle imports from the U.S.? If so what is the cost? There are a couple Brownings in the new England states I may go take a look at.

Yes, while huntergendersons are awesome, I wouldn't be able to bring myself to shoot them, I am looking for the full sized rifle with hex barrel! Ha, at my age I should ( and will) be selling mine off but there are a few that I would still like to have if only for a few years and then my kids can sell them to the next care taker to enjoy!

They’re out there. I recently bought a nib Browning 1886 SRC same as Henderson’s from CSC for $2200 to my door. I guess some guys bought them when they were $800 hoping to get 10 grand for them decades later instead of shooting and enjoying them. BTW I found a rifle version from a small gun shop probably 15 years ago from Upstate NY and had Clay’s team import it for me. YMMV

 

[Dreaded Platypus]

I have a Browning 1886 1/3000 Centennial Edition that Turnbull converted to .475 Turnbull.
Won it unfired with a single $20 dealer raffle ticket.
Best gun deal of my life LOL

And yes, it’ll knock your fillings loose LOL
