Factory engraving was done by hand at FN Herstal, and is done by laser engraving with hand finishing at Miroku. The lack of a side-mounted ejection port also leaves a large "canvas" for engraving. The rifle was intended for a wide age range, and period advertisements recommend the rifle both for adult usage as well as appropriate for youth shooters. Downward-ejected hot spent cases can become trapped in a shirt sleeve, so care should be taken to avoid this with proper hand placement on the forend. This feature was intended by the designer to keep the user's face "protected from gasses and flying particles while firing", at which it succeeds especially for smaller people.
22 is a made from blued steel and walnut, and ejects spent cases downward. It has been offered in several "grades" of engraving and gold inlay, and is a widely collected gun, especially those manufactured in Belgium. 22 LR caliber, and is regarded as a classic firearm. The SA-22 was the first production semi-automatic rifle chambered in. A close copy of the SA-22 was made by the Chinese company Norinco and imported into the US by Interarms as the Model ATD. Except for the barrel locking mechanism the Remington Model 241 is very similar to the Browning SA-22. Remington manufactured a lighter weight version under license from 1919-1935 as the Remington Model 24 and then replaced it with the Remington Model 241 in 1935. It was first exported by FN for the American market in 1956. Production began in 1914 and continued through 1973 in Belgium and production continued in 1974 in Japan by Miroku. The rifle is currently produced by Browning as the Semi-Auto 22. It's the best rifle purchase I've made! Here's a good deal if you just want a shooter.The Browning 22 Semi-Auto rifle, also known as the Semi Automatic 22 or SA-22, is a takedown rifle produced by FN Herstal based on a John Browning patent. Are those days gone forever! Buy a rifle and new tires (which came cheaper if you had a recappable tire from your car.) Only old guys like me will know the meaning of that last statement! The rifle I purchased came in the original box and was sold in a Firestone store in 1966.
They used to sell it with a carry bag, but mine did not come with one. And to be completely honest, there is nothing more fun than rapid firing just for the heck of it. I have fewer misfires with the SA-22 as compared to my Winchester Models 62 and 63. It is the smallest rifle I have ever shot (the receiver is almost tiny compared to other. The rifle is light and the sights are excellent. It is extremely accurate, easy and fun to shoot.
