Any experts out there that can share their knowledge on these guns? Have one sitting in the safe that I received from an estate sale about 20 years ago. Never shot it but very nice looking gun.
 
I'm no expert, but there were a few versions, one stamped Browning, one stamped Winchester, both mfg in Japan by Miroku. I have two of them and they are both extremely accurate. If you go on a website called "rimfirecentral" and search under winchester 52 you will find huge amounts of information regarding these rifles. If you have any specific questions I can try to answer them, good luck, they are very nice 22's.
 
I had a Browning stamped model :D& it had a Match (super tight) Chamber, never could get it to extract properly:(, had it sent back a couple of times, they said they changed extractors but it didn't help.
 
Wander over to Rimfirecentral and then to Gunsamerica and then split the kerch$ng.
Oh wait, you going to EE it here?
Take the highest you find on the two I mentioned and at least double it.
If someone hasn't back doored ya yet.
After 20 or so BTT, you can lower it a bit.
Post some photos dang it.............

Realistic price on the Browning Model 52B sporter in 90% cond. is anywere from $900-1100, unfortunately the Winchester ones are more sought after, the only differrence in the Browning I had to my Winchester was how the barrel was secured to the stock basically? Wood seemed to be better on the Winchesters.

I bought my Win 52B sporter in the early 1990's, and it a one hole 25 yard shooter with CCI ST VEL, still have the first one hole group I ever got! Started me into accurate 22 LR's, a fever that never is satisfied!

You have a gem, Leopold makes bases and rings for them, also Talley has a nice set available. If it were mine I would shoot it, not sell it, but good luck!

Cheers Dale Z!

Does have a set of Leopold rings and bases on it............
 
Checked my receipt from March 1993,,twenty years ago I bought a win.b52 new ,paid $734 ,then for $80 the dealer ordered Warne bases and rings,it is a nice full size gun to shoot ,today I would think it would bring $1000--$1200 in perfect condition .
 
the thing about ee is u can put what ever price u like on it then wait .after many 100's of views or maybe 1000's u can price it for what its worth $750-$800 and sell it. and before u all jump all over me i found 2 on line $779.00 have a nice day.

If I were going to sell, I know its only worth what someone is willing to pay. I appreciate all of the input though as I had no knowledge of these guns, nice to have folks that know a bit about them share their wisdom.
