    Browning 22 Pistol Information

    My first handgun was a Browning 22 Long Rifle semi-automatic pistol. I received it new as a gift 45-50 years ago. It is in like new condition. I am looking for information: name of pistol, manufacturing information, and if possible a link to or a copy of the owner's manual.

    Markings on the pistol:

    Brownings Arms Company
    Made in Belgium
    22 long Rifle
    Serial #: 75856U7

    I appreciate any input.

    Might be a Browning Buckmark, although I'm not sure they were around back then.

    Nope, not a Buckmark, probably a Medalist or a Challenger. The Buckmark came out in 1985.

    You can see Mfg dates and S/N break downs here: Browning Date Your Gun(Owners manuals can be downloaded there too)

    But the number you give doesn't match up to anything I've seen there...granted I didn't look too deep.

    VAMarine,

    Thanks for the response. I had checked the Browning link that you referenced but could not find a serial number under any of the models that matched my pistol. If I cannot find the information, I may be forced to try the $39 Browning link the historical guns, although I not sure this applies to my gun.
