All rights reserved.Description: Browning BAR semi automatic rifle. II rifles can be found on the Product Reviews page.Ĭopyright 2005, 2013 by Chuck Hawks. I consider it to be, as Browning advertises, "The best there is." The BAR Mark II Safari is a handsome and deadly autoloading hunting rifle. I particularly appreciate the recoil reduction effect provided by the gas operated action, which makes it faster than other rifles of similar power to get back on target for repeat shots. This is one autoloader that literally shoots as well as a bolt action. It has proven to be an accurate and reliable rifle. Weight is 6 pounds 15 ounces for standard calibers and 7 pounds 8 ounces for magnum calibers. Barrel lengths are 22" (standard calibers) and 24" (magnum calibers). Weight is 6 pounds 10 ounces for standard calibers and 7 pounds 4 ounces for magnum calibers. Barrel lengths are 22" (standard calibers) and 23" (magnum calibers). The MSRP is similar to Safari models, so all the shortcuts don't save the consumer any money-but undoubtedly they do increase Browning's profit margin. (Those Europeans are so sophisticated!) They come with a set of six shims that can be used to adjust the angle of the butt stock. The Trac models are built on an aluminum alloy receiver sans engraving and are supplied with a plastic trigger guard and magazine floor plate. The clumsy stocks are, surprisingly, walnut. This includes the blocky lines, odd stock and forearm angles, squared trigger guard, and small checkered panels typical of this firearm style. The LongTrac and ShortTrac models (long action and short action-get it?) feature Euro-trash styling. Overall length is 41 to 45 inches, depending on barrel length. Weight is 7 pounds 2 ounces to 7 pounds 12 ounces, depending on caliber. Lightweight Stalker standard calibers include. This is essentially a lighter and very plain utility version of the Safari model. The metal finish is a low glare black matte and the stock is a weather-resistant black synthetic. WSM calibers come with 23" barrels and belted magnum calibers come with a 24 inch barrel. The Lightweight Stalker model has an aircraft grade aluminum alloy receiver without engraving and a 20 inch barrel in standard calibers. Overall length is 43 inches for standard calibers, 44 inches for WSM calibers, and 45 inches for belted magnum calibers. Safari magnum rifles weigh 8 pounds 6 ounces (8 pounds 4 ounces for WSM calibers). Average weight for standard caliber Safari rifles is 7 pounds 6 ounces. The Safari has the best lines, best finish, and is by far the most attractive BAR Mk. The barrel lengths are 22 inches in standard calibers, 23 inches in WSM calibers, and 24 inches in belted magnum calibers. All metal surfaces are highly polished and deep luster blued, and the wood has a beautiful high gloss finish. The top of the line Safari model has an engraved, forged steel receiver and a genuine walnut stock and forearm with generous areas of diamond pattern cut checkering. The BAR's gas operation noticeably reduces perceived recoil, even without the ventilated BOSS muzzle brake. The BOSS system is available for standard calibers. There is also an optional non-vented BOSS CR muzzle weight. The vented muzzle brake is claimed to reduce recoil by about a third. It can be adjusted to optimize barrel vibration for enhanced accuracy with any bullet weight. The Browning BOSS (Ballistic Optimizing Shooting System) is an accuracy enhancing and recoil reducing system that includes an adjustable muzzle brake/weight. BOSS is an option available on the Safari model only. Open sights are standard on the Lightweight Stalker model, and no longer available on other models. II triggers that I have ever tried are creepy and too heavy this is something that the factory should correct. The magazine capacity is 4 for standard calibers, 3 for belted magnum calibers, and 2 for WSM calibers. It comes in three basic models: Safari, ShortTrac/LongTrac, and Lightweight Stalker.Īll BAR Mark II rifles feature advanced self-cleaning gas operation, seven lug rotary bolt, dual action bars, removable trigger assembly, bolt lock release lever, ambidextrous crossbolt safety with an enlarged head, hinged floorplate with removable box magazine, gold plated trigger, and studs for detachable sling swivels. The Browning BAR Mark II is the most popular of all semi-automatic hunting rifles.
