1969 Belgian Browning Medallion Grade .243win Heavy Barrel Gorgeous Carved Olympian Walnut Stock
Description: Very odd gun, I received confirmation that it letters as a medallion grade but it does not mention anything about the stock. The wood is gorgeous, great color and grain throughout the entire piece, carving and checkering are both well executed. Standard medallion engraving with gold inlaid rams head on the floorplate and scrollwork on the barrel/receiver area. I have many questions about the gun and there are many potential answers. Initally I figured it was a salt gun and someone had the stock replaced with whatever was available but there is absolutely no signs of salt corrossion or restoration on the metal. My next best guess is that the original wood was damaged in some way which is why the stock was replaced. Lastly it COULD be a special order gun or potentially a factory decision based on stock availability at the time of production? This is probably not likely but not impossible. The stock looks and feels factory to me. In any regard the gun is beautiful and in very nice condition, there is a tiny bit of muzzle wear on the left side of the barrel and a few light handling marks in the wood.
