I was in grade8 and a school friend showed me his older brothers SA-22. I sighted it up on my shoulder at 12 years old, and it felt so perfectly balanced & light, but the most increadible observation was when I sighted this little Browning & the front sights come into absolute clarity, as though I was wearing magnifying glasses, just so perfect of a rifle in so many ways. // Definately that one out of my rice range, fully engraved & when I turned 14 I opted to purchase my beloved Remington Nylon 66 (butt tube fed) & it was also a delight & most accurate to fire, as a second best older 1970 model. // Good channel here.
I happened to see a Japanese model today while I was browsing some shops. However, the price they were asking for the model was excessively high considering its condition.
I saw a Jap model in a sporting goods store (where I bought mine) many years ago. I was shocked and annoyed at what a piece of junk it was. @@VintageArmory

That is a great story and I got this one almost a year ago for only 800 bucks.
Where to buy
Google is amazing 🤩
Thanks
No problem.
I've got an extremely nice Japan model along with a Browning BPS Engraved
Are we allowed to ask their value on yt??

The one I saw today, they were asking for 1200 and it was pretty clapped. I got this one for around 800.

My experience has been, that the Japanese makes surpass the Belgian in quality and precision of engineering.
I haven't shot the Japanese version so I don't have any experience between the two unfortunately.
I don't see how the Belgian quality can be improved upon.
I know they definitely demand more of a premium over the Japanese models.
@@VintageArmory That is due to collectability driven by scarcity.
