That IS correct and having owned many Browning guns, have several now, I would say that any difference in quality in them is in FAVOUR of the Japanese-made ones.
The Citori, especially the Type III, IS a superior gun to the Belgian Superposed, the various repro Winchester models by Miroku ARE better fitted and finsihed than originals and the various Jap.-built Browning bolt rifles are all junk, especially compared to the Belg. Brownings, made from '57 to about '65, when they began to decline in quality..."salt Brownings?"
The BLR81 is a good rifle, my 35 yr. old Belg. .308W beater STILL shoots sub-MOA with Nossies and I have never found it difficult to pack due to the mag., as some seem to....IF, you believe the American gun writers.........
