Factory Engraved J. Baerten Signed Belgian Browning Grade IV BAR Semi-Automatic Rifle with Scope

Manufactured in 1977. The barrel lacks provisions for sights and has standard maker and caliber markings. The French grey receiver shows fine interwoven scroll engraving on the sides, trigger guard and floor plate, and sides have game scenes of two prong horn antelope and two deer on the right and left respectively. The work is signed on the lower rear left side "J. BAERTEN" for FN Master Engraver Jose Baerten. A Nikon 3-9x40 scope is mounted atop the receiver. The receiver is mounted in a nicely figured checkered stock with carved scroll accents and string of pearl borders around the checkered panels, and a plastic Browning buttplate. Includes a leather sling.

ConditionExcellent retaining 99% plus original blue and French grey finishes with limited handling marks, and crisp engraving. The stock is fine with dings and scratches and overall crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. Scope is excellent with clear optics and a crisp reticle.
