 Model 1885
The beauty of a single shot rifle
The great classic among single shot
hunting and shooting guns was designed and perfected by John Moses Browning at the end of
the last century. This gun has remained as beautiful and impressive today as it was 100
years ago.
A single-shot rifle requires particular
care and accuracy in setting up the shot: each shot must count. Available in numerous
calibers, from varmints to the largest of buffalo, the Model 1885 combines the pleasure of
tradition with the advantages of perfect fabrication, using the best of modern steels.


1885 Low Wall
61 cm barrel, available in
varmint-shooting calibers. With a pistol-grip stock that makes for excellent handling, the
1885 Low Wall is the ideal hunting or shooting gun.


1885 High Wall
The octagonal 71 cm barrel and English
stock give this gun its purity and finesse of line.


1885 BPCR (Black Powder Cartridge
Rifle)
Available in caliber 45-70 or 40-65, it is
perfectly suited for BPCR silhouette shoots. Its jaspered finish is identical to the
original version. It is fitted with a Vernier rearsight and interchangeable front sight
inserts.


1885 BPCR "Creedmore"
(Black Powder Cartridge Rifle)
Its 86 cm barrel propels the bullet 45-900
m at 400 meters per second. The 1885 Creedmore is fitted with a Vernier type peep sight
and a spirit level.

charm of this old-fashioned rifle. Steel butt plate, oil-rubbed finish, octagonal barrel,
etc.

Its part octagonal, part round 61 cm long
barrel offers a perfect compromise between accuracy and weight. The jaspered receiver and
