Best 1886 rifle?

Also the Winchester /Miroku made guns have tang safeties and rebounding hammers which were not on the Original guns

Not the first ones. That came a little later. - dan

As I stated, the miroku made rifles/carbine's did not have the added tang safety at first, and added them later. There is no other differen̈ce aside from the stamping, Browning and Winchester are branches of the same company. - dan

I had forgotten about the browning 1886, I’ll keep an eye out

The Browning 1886 is made by Miroku. they're great rifles but more as users than anything else. They aren't particularly collectible, where original Winchesters are.
