Browning Mark II BAR Lightweight w/BOSS (SAFARI?)
« on: November 20, 2008, 08:42:27 PM »
Hi Guys,

I picked up a brand new 7mm Rem Mag BAR from Kesselrings a few weeks ago.  I must say that it's the most acurate rifle I've owned and shot!  Absolutely love it! More accurate than my Tikka!  :yike:

I have a question... The box says it's a Mark II Lightweight Safari, but it doesn't say Safari on the rifle.  It has beautiful gloss wood, and has a blued alloy reciever with no engraving, so it's no doubt the lightweight version.  It just seems odd that I can't find this model on the Browning Website or when I search the internet.

Is this a special run or something?   

Thanks

His sounds like the standar Safari if he has the engraving, since it's a steel reciever.  The one I have is the matte aluminum alloy.  I agree, these are awesome rifles!
