Browning

Browning Arms Company is one of the most legendary brands in the history of shooting and hunting, bearing the name of John Moses Browning (1855–1926), the greatest firearms designer in history. Browning Arms Company has operated since 1878, when John Moses Browning and his brother Matthew founded the company in Ogden, Utah. Today, the brand belongs to the FN Herstal group and offers shotguns, rifles, pistols, knives, apparel, and hunting accessories under a name associated with more than 120 patents that permanently shaped modern shooting sports.

John Moses Browning and the legacy of a firearms designer

John Moses Browning patented his first rifle in 1879 and continued innovating for 47 years, creating designs later produced by Winchester, Colt, Remington, and FN Herstal. Among his most famous creations are the Winchester Model 1886 rifle, the Browning M2 (.50 cal) machine gun and its M1919 variant, the Colt M1911 and Hi-Power (FN GP35) pistols, the BAR automatic rifle, the Auto-5 shotgun (the world’s first semi-automatic shotgun), as well as the Superposed shotguns. The M1911 and M2 are still used by armed forces around the world today, and Browning himself worked on new designs until his death in 1926 in Herstal. No other firearms designer in history has had such a lasting impact on shooting sports and firearms development.
