Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Browning International Medalist, made by FN Browning Arms Company, is a classic .22 LR semi-automatic pistol that was manufactured during the 1970s and 1980s, with models marked “I 75–I 76” produced under the FN barrel address. Part of Browning’s rimfire pistol lineup alongside the Nomad and Challenger, the International Medalist is prized for its refined target styling — including adjustable sights and a well-balanced frame — making it a standout for precision plinking and recreational shooting. The pistol’s production emphasized both quality and aesthetic appeal: it features a steel-framed action, ventilated rib barrel, and ergonomic walnut grips. Earlier Badge Collector Association reports suggest that only limited numbers were made, especially in certain serial ranges, adding a layer of rarity to this version. Today, the International Medalist is considered a collectible piece thanks to its European manufacture, target-oriented design, and relatively short production span compared to more common Browning rimfires.
