I've always liked the little Browning, and finally found this one on GB a few years ago. Seems nobody wanted a pretty Browning made in Japan, so I made him an offer, and he accepted.
Do I recall that the earlier ones were Belgian, or was that just the Browning over/unders? Maybe the Miroku-built guns don't have the snob appeal but they are just as pretty! Can't wait to see that Model 12! Even the beaters were getting ridiculous prices the last time I looked (a number of years go). I gotta believe you got a bargain. Stu |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: In my dotage, I've started to look for guns that please the eye as well as shoot well. I've always liked the little Browning, and finally found this one on GB a few years ago. Seems nobody wanted a pretty Browning made in Japan, so I made him an offer, and he accepted. Also bought a Walther FP on GB and a nice Winchester Model 12 on an auction site in Portland. The M-12 was in with 15 or so other exquisite M-12's that had master engravings on them, the best going for $7000 + 23% buyer's premium. I was the only bidder on mine for $600.
