Yep.... Same company that makes the Brownings 0 -
Some model Winchesters are made in Belgium. So are some Browning models.

The new model 70 is made by Browning FMC in either North or South Carolina.

Their lever actions, and single shot rifles are made by Miroku, in Japan. Some of their shotguns are made in Belgium, and their bolt actions rifles are made in the US. I believe that some of their shotguns, and perhaps semi-auto rifles, are made in Italy.
