Manufactured in Belgium without sights. The receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounts. The barrel is marked with the Morgan and Montreal address on the left side. French gray finished action with engraved game scenes on both sides featuring a running pronghorn buck and doe on the right side and a running whitetail buck and doe on the left side, both scenes are bordered by deep relief scroll and floral engraving which is also shown on the trigger guard and magazine bottom. The engraver's signature "R. Bee" is marked on the lower right hand corner of the left side of the action. Deluxe walnut flat bottom pistol grip stock and forearm with extra fancy checkering featuring a dot and floral border and a high gloss finish. Browning hard rubber buttplate, gold washed trigger and French gray sling swivels. Complete with Browning black box hand numbered to gun.

Rating Definition:

Excellent with the barrel retaining virtually all of the original blue finish. There are a few minor scratches on the top of the action and on the sides of the magazine. The engraving is clear and crisp. The wood is excellent with a heavy gouge on the right side of the forearm, some minor to moderate scratches and a slight chip on the pistol grip. There are some light nicks in the overall sharp checkering. The box is excellent with light edge wear, some light tape marks and two separated lid corners (one has been taped). The label exhibits minor curling of the edges but otherwise the label is complete.
