browning medalist
Hi, I am looking at purchasing a Browning 22lr semi automatic target pistol.It is being sold as a Medalist which means it should have a "T" in the serial #.The trouble is that the letter in the Serial # is a "U" which according to the information I got shows it to be a Challenger model.The seller states that it dosen't matter what the letter is.I'm wondering if Browning put out a Challenger to look like the Medalist, or is it a Challenger with Medalist handgrips and barrel wood put on it after the fact? The pistol comes complete with Browning carry case,barrel weights, and screwdriver and is in excellent condition,no wear. Any information on value or origin of this gun would be appreciated,I'm sorry that I don't have the rest of the serial # to give but I know that it was made in 1965. Regards Jim

I have a left handed Browning medalist standard model with a renaissance barrel.It was made in the last year of production. Were any of these pistols shipped from Browning with this variant? The historian at Browning could not verify this. 0 -
Medalist-$500 Challenger $250 Nomad- $200 If I were buying one to shoot I would go with the Challenger.Some of the Nomads have alloy frames and the Medalist a little to expensive to wear out. 0
