pump action 22

[savage 110L]

A friend of mine has an old Browning 22 LR pump action and is wondering about the history of the rifle. Does anyone have any information about these?

serial # 26912. Fabrique Nationale d'arme de guerre Herstal Belgique.

Google "Browning Trombone"
From a search:
From your description, it sounds like you have what is called the Browning "Trombone Model". The Trombone Model is a hammerless slide action takedown rifle similar to the Winchester Model 61. The Trombone Model is chambered for .22 LR only and comes with a tubular magazine fixed sights and a 24 inch round barrel. Over 150,00 Browning Trombone Models were manufactured by Fabrique National from 1922 to 1974, blue book values range from $225.00 to $695.00 depending on condition
