Who made the Browning lever guns in the 80s? I thought Miroku made them then, too. I'm speaking to the 1886, 1892, 1894, etc, not the BLRs. As far as I know, the only difference between an Browning 1892 from the 80s and a presently produced Winchester 1892, other than a safety or other minor details, is the use of the name Winchester, which FN/Browning acquired the rights to some years ago.
