Item Description
The Browning Model 42 High Grade “Grade V” stands as a true testament to fine craftsmanship, born from a pivotal collaboration between Browning and Miroku. This partnership emerged in the wake of Winchester’s discontinuation of the legendary Model 12 and Model 42, breathing new life into two of the most revered pump-action shotguns in American history. For collectors and enthusiasts, it offered a rare chance to own a newly manufactured classic, fusing nostalgic design with modern precision. While the more commonly produced Grade I variants were widely available, it was the limited-production Grade V models that truly stole the spotlight. Crafted between 1991 and 1993 in a restricted run of just 6,000 units, the Grade V exemplifies exclusivity and elegance. With its superior finish, engraved artwork, and overall refinement, the Browning Model 42 High Grade “Grade V” remains a prized piece for those who appreciate the artistry behind a truly exceptional shotgun.
