F/S Discounted New Browning BPCR book

For sale is my Browning 1885 BPCR book which I errored & double ordered.  So, I have too many & selling them at a discount to get rid of the excess inventory.  The normal price is $60.70 ($54.95 + $5.75) shipping.  Your price is $49.95 total, which includes shipping to the lower 48.

This is the only book available on the Miroku manufactured Browning 1885 BPCRs.  It also includes the rifles Miroku manufactured for Winchester.  It includes all the information available on the rifles, complete disassembly & reassembly, reloading & much more.

The Browning 1885 High Wall BPCR models are the focus of the 1st section, but due to the relatively minor differences in the design, much of the material in the appendices is applicable to the full line of Model 1885 Rifles manufactured by Miroku for both Browning and Winchester. In fact, if you ever decide to disassemble your Miroku manufactured Browning or Winchester Model 1885 rifle, Appendix 1 alone is worth the price of the book. The term "Miroku manufactured" is used here to distinguish modern Browning and Winchester Model 1885 rifles from 19th century and early 20th century "original" Winchester rifles.

The 9" by 6" book contains 418 pages of text, 7 tables and 95 figures. Only high-quality components and construction was used in the manufacturing. For those of you somewhat familiar with book binding, it has a hard case bound cover. The cover artwork is laminated to the cover under a layer of durable textured clear poly. The inside pages are cut from 60 lb. bright-white acid-free archival paper. The book block (inside pages) is bound with a mill and notch binding operation including the white 100% cotton end sheets.

I accept personal checks, money orders or PayPal.  Please PM me for my mail or PayPal address.  If using PayPal, please add an additional 3% to cover their fee or send the funds as family & friends.  Thanks.

BTW, the front & back cover background is the Yaupon Creek BPCR silhouette range near Columbus, TX.

Bruce,

It does not cover the B78.  The B78 receiver internal parts, especially the trigger group is different & more complicated than the 1885.  The only source I’m aware of for disassembly and assembly instructions for the B-78 is Browning’s Field Service Manual, which is available from the ASSRA Archival Library.
