Browning Model 81 BLR Features
Browning Model 81 BLR is a lever-action rifle designed around a rack-and-pinion operating system and detachable box magazine, allowing it to use modern pointed rifle cartridges. This Pre-Owned example was manufactured in 1983 and is configured with a mounted scope for hunting and general sporting use. Unlike traditional tube-fed lever actions, the BLR feeds from a detachable magazine, avoiding the projectile-shape limitations associated with tubular magazine designs. The result is a lever-action platform capable of chambering higher-pressure centerfire rifle cartridges commonly associated with bolt-action rifles.
The Model 81 BLR uses a rotating bolt that locks securely into the barrel extension, providing the strength needed for modern rifle cartridges while retaining traditional lever operation. Its geared rack-and-pinion action translates movement of the lever into positive bolt travel, giving the BLR a distinctive mechanical design compared with conventional lever guns. The detachable box magazine also makes unloading and magazine changes straightforward while permitting the use of spitzer-style ammunition. Browning designed the BLR to combine fast follow-up shots with the ballistic versatility expected from contemporary hunting cartridges. This 1983-production rifle represents the earlier Model 81 generation of the BLR and retains the classic proportions and handling characteristics associated with the design. The rifle includes one detachable magazine and a mounted scope.
