firearm. It is your responsibility to secure the most up-to-date
information on the safe handling procedures for your Browning gun.
Browning assumes no liability for incidents which occur when unsafe
or improper gun accessories or ammunition combinations are used.

service on such firearms. Browning will charge the owner for parts
and labor to return the firearm to original Browning specifications.
