Description
Features
Â
Designed by Bruce Browning (grandson of John M. Browning), the sporting BAR brought military-style semi-automatic reliability to the big-game hunting world. When Browning introduced the magnum calibers (including 7mm Rem Mag) in 1969, it gave hunters a hard-hitting, flat-shooting semi-auto capable of taking down distant game while keeping felt recoil remarkably manageable.
