Just wanted to share my new addition.... Well new to me and I've owned it for a couple years, but its home.

1963 Browning Superposed 2bbls set, fully engraved by Marechal at browning when he was on staff.

Gun was hardly used, no signs of wear on action face and lock-up is new gun tight

All that crappy high gloss browning hate removed from the fore ends and stock matte finish oil applied to show off the grade 5 wood (someone at browning should rot in hell for the shellac they use) action was soda blasted to clean up the surface rust and new French grey applied.

obviously the gun literally oozes sex appeal.

That is a beautiful timber stock. Have you considered hand rubbing in some oil?
 
Very nice Super. I think these are among the best buys on the market and have a pair - 12 and 20 ga. with 28" solid rib barrels. I seem to shoot them better than most of my other shotguns.
 
Who did you have do the receiver?

Hi Joshlee0518 (please let me know if you are fine being addressed like that),

Thought I would drop you a PM. It is super exciting to plan a hunt and we are more than happy to assist you. Have you given any thought yet to which species you would like to take?

What do you hunt usually and which weapons/calibers are you using?

Look forward to swapping experiences and ideas.

Happy hunting - Daniel
Our trophy shed is filling up and we are only getting started,

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)
