Thought I'd post a few pictures of my Browning Classic. Miroku made 5000 of these from 1983-84, given special serial numbers and sent to FN in Belgium for engraving. It's my only Japanese made Auto-5. This is a close-up of the engraver's signature.
Very nice! Many years ago, I was on our local skeet range, and saw a fellow using one to break clays. Guess he wanted to put it to use as opposed to keeping it a collectible safe queen.
Mine's a shooter too, as are all of my guns. This one's in slow rotation though. If it wasn't for the modified choke (or if I were a better shot) it would get out a little more.
That is a very sweet firearm. I'm also glad to hear it get's to exercise like it was meant to every now and then.
