Hello All, I just joined this forum and looking forward to chatting with some of you about Browning firearms. I've owned more Browning firearms than all other manufacturers combined. My first deer rifle was a Browning A-bolt stainless stalker in 30-06 that I bought new in 1991. I still own it, though now it has a teflon coating on all the metal and the stock has been painted olive green with black spider webbing. I've owned, or own, rifles, shotguns and pistols and will probably go through many more. There are lots of great guns out there but I'm a sucker for a pretty Browning! Love em.
