Browning BPS manufacture dates
« on: March 18, 2006, 06:39:09 AM »
I just picked up my second used BPS.
Went to the Browning web site to date them.
My first one was made in 1987 but has a fixed choke.
The second was made in 1984 and came with invector chokes, it also has a selector on the mag tube so I can empty the chamber without emptying the magazine.
Is it safe to presume that both models have had their barrels replaced?
When did Browning start using choke tubes?

Thanks.
