- This week we visit the secret military installation that is Browning's factory in Belgium where, alongside the automatic rifles, the craftsmen of the Browning Custom Shop make some of the most sought-after shotguns in the world. We go stalking roebuck and foxshooting with Browning in Belgium, using the latest X-Bolt rifles, and we take the B25, the B525 and the Maxus to a pretty Belgian chateau with a clay ground. And were we allowed to see what Browning is planning to bring out next year. Sorry sir - access restricted!

he is trying to tell him about the stock and forend and charlie is just interupting sniffing the wood and not listening GROW UP!!!
I have Browning A5 Semi in Jodhpur Rajasthan India. My father brought it from Egypt when he went their in 1942 as part of British forces in middle East. India was ruled by Britishers at that time. My gun 12 bore is in excellent condition, shoots wel but sometimes I face jamming problem. If any FN company member want to see it, gun is available in Jodhpur Rajasthan India. It's a great piece of work. Pin point shooting is possible with this gun.
Thank you FN.
charlie jacobi has got to be the most irritating man they could find 'looks like chocolate' my arse ,
Uh, John Browning also invented entire categories of guns and 4 of the most important and most used MILITARY guns of the 20th century. From the first "compact" semi-auto pocket pistols to the first semi-auto sporting rifle and semi-auto shotgun to SEVERAL legendary Winchester lever-action centerfire rifles and rimfire rifles to the might M2 Heavy Machine Gun and the finest combat pistol ever designed in the 1911. Finest EVER? Absolutely. Why? Because it is STILL the ONLY pistol ever designed specifically FOR COMBAT with major changes made by military officers during the selection process, which took several years and during which John Browning submitted SEVERAL pistols and made modifications continually until the U.S. Army had EXACTLY what it wanted.
There literally is not only no other SINGLE gunmaker in history that can't legitimately compared to Browning, the fact that he invented so many guns and so many operating principles and design elements and gun systems pretty much means that you can take all of the there gun makers COMBINED and their COLLECTIVE contributions don't equal what he did ALONE and by HAND and by BUILDING THE GUN IN WOOD AND STEEL instead of just ON PAPER. John Browning did not deliver "prototypes" or plans or blueprints or sketches. He delivered GUNS.
DEEREMEYER1 Agreed, a historic and living achievement in 20th century gun development and production; which appears hard to accept by a few Brits here. Even surpassing Fred Beesley, the 'principal inventor of the London gun trade'.
I Couldn’t Agree More 😎👍🏼 Browning Was A Legend And 1 of a Kind
Dude,STOP touching all the damn wood!! That's why no one is allowed in.
The guy stressed that they are hand built guns. Not really hand built when you are using some kind of milling machine or any machinery to rough out stocks and forearms. Certainly tons and tons of hand work, but its a marketing line of BS to say its handbuilt. John Browning made true hand-built guns at least until he got them made in Belgium.
Lovely video, I own a proper Belgian Browning and live 15 minutes away from the factory. Our club house is that chateau in Andenne, nice to see it all back here.
I dont know what that Belgian bloke is on about? Here in South Africa, he drop Eland on the spot with a 270 win. Surely a 270 is sufficient for Wild boar?
Did he say .270 was insufficient for boar? Yikes.
The host speaks so quickly and he's a soft talker which is an annoying combination. Get him a lapel mic. The Browning CEO is easy to hear and understand by comparison
My early vintage Browning Auto 5s, proudly occupy real estate in my stable, beside several of London's pre-war finest.While the wood is utilitarian, the actions and barrels are manufactured with the best steels, to very high standards. They point well, and if the actions are kept clean, the complains are far fewer than coming from the high maintenance British girls.

I own a Browning Superposed ST-100 that was manufactured in the Browning Custom Shop in 1979. It has been superb. I have put north of 30K rounds of ammunition through it in trap doubles competition. The gun is beautifully built and is the finest O/U shotgun in the world. JMHO.
I had a ST-100 as well. They were standard production B25 guns (albeit not a hugely popular model). I also had the nicer ST-80
@@Russell-1 I'd like to see an ST 80
To my surprise, there was very little info about the shotgun barrel manufacturing
Recently purchased my luxury Browning BAR Zenith Wood, great rifle ergonomy, but bended barrel (!)... waiting for reparation. Come on Browning! What's going on? Somehow disappointed...
I shot everything out of the sky with a B2G - I am convinced that these are the BEST shotguns in the world, bar none. Not going back to beretta. The actions on the brownings are like silk and so strong too, with a degree of pointability i have never experienced in any other gun before. Selling up my (current) Winchester soon I hope!
Can anyone tell me who makes the Yellow Browning Gun slips as shown in this video
at the end they say for wingshooting in the UK they wouldn't allow a semi automatic. why not? stupid.
They are what you might call a gun snob.
I will stick to my good old American made Brownings and his designs
Why don't you x-ray or ultrasound the wood to look for voids beforehand?
can anyone tell that how could i order the parts for the my browning handgun??
I have a Browning A5 built in 1903, wow it came from this factory . That is wonderful.
ブローニング、上下二連素敵すぎ。
I enjoy watching anything dealing with belgium brownings ,,,, i read some of the comments and what this South Carolina fellow is reading is that they are a lot of want to be folks who think they know whats what.... I am glad I do not hunt with these folks or learn life lessons from
Это бельгия ? Браунинг
Yes.
WOW! I would love to get my hands on some of that wood, beautiful when a finished rifle and Man...would I love to see the factory, has to hurt to walk away empty handed.
Browning Shotguns its Made miroku...or not???
They own Miroku.
@@fieldsportstv but do they produce O/U in Japan?

Uh, it's TIMBER when its still a tree. After its cut down and cut into boards its LUMBER.
Browning - the best there is
Maybe 100 years ago. Sure.
I need a phone # FOR BROWNING PARTS Thank You Don Consola
I literally have 800lbs of burl blanks of different sizes. I should call them lol.
Como e o nome desta madeira usada na fabricação desta coronha?

Great work browning
بشرى جيتك ته " go " وش صار في موضوعي
No where near that fox
I thought foxes were endangered
@pikemancolley is browning a london maker?
no.
so browning really are the best i was always told that purdeys were
I don't intend to be rude, but rich Brits obviously don't know how to hunt. Walking, and climbing up a stand in the middle of the day, with a scoped small bore? Good luck with that gents.
Matt Goodwin or, you could remove all the skill and shoot up everything in sight with an AR15.
Matt - shooting from a ‘high seat’ isn’t the way it’s mostly done in the U.K. perhaps you are thinking of mainland Europe?
The shame is Britain has made some of the finest firearms ever yet it's basically illegal to own a gun in England or defend yourself. What a joke.
@AYE OK SURE ...you seem very aggressive for a firearms owner?
AYE OK SURE the British love slaves like you !!
@@bustersmith5569 Knob
Subjects are not worthy enough to defend themselves.
Zoe’s Dad - you are wrong - it’s not illegal to own a gun in the U.K. Britain has a thriving target & sporting shooting community.
