Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Browning BLR was first manufactured in 1970, from 1970-1973 the BLR was Made in Belgium and from 1973-Present Made in Japan. The BLR uses a detachable box magazine. Because of this, the BLR can be chambered for rounds with pointed tip Spitzer bullets that could be a safety issue for the tubular magazine more commonly used in lever-action rifles where a pointed bullet may through the forces of recoil strike the next round's primer and ignite that round The rack and pinion geared lever and bolt design can accommodate high-pressure modern magnum rounds. A notable feature is that the trigger moves with the lever when it is operated, which prevents the shooter's trigger finger from being pinched between the lever and the stock when the lever is closed.

This Browning BLR in .308 Win combines classic lever-action charm with modern precision and versatility. Featuring a 20-inch blue barrel and a beautifully checkered walnut straight grip stock and forearm, it exudes timeless elegance and ergonomic comfort. The rifle is equipped with a hooded bead blade front sight and an adjustable notch rear sight, while also being drilled and tapped for scope mounts, ensuring adaptability to various shooting preferences and conditions. With its standard markings and robust lever-action mechanism, the Browning BLR in .308 Win stands as a reliable choice for both hunting and sporting enthusiasts alike.
