Very attractive engraved Browning Model A22 Semi-automatic rifle which has been custom fitted with an AWC Ultra suppressor with "S" prefix serial number. Includes an original non-matching serial number box. Typical AWC Systems Technology address on underside of suppressor/barrel. This lot will transfer as both a semi-automatic rifle and with the suppressor as a National Firearms Act item and the two will not be separated. A very clever idea to take a high quality rifle and have a integrally suppressed barrel fitted complete with sight and forend. Latch on underside of barrel assembly holds it very securely in place. CONDITION: Overall appearance and finish extremely fine to near excellent original lustrous blue finish on receiver with a matte finish on the suppressor/barrel. Beautiful glossy original finish on wood furnishings with some bruised checks on the forearm. Buttstock has a crack running about 1.50" back from the trigger guard parallel to the bore line and the stock flexes slightly on the receiver. Repairable. Bore is extremely fine, shiny and bright. Bolt is also extremely fine with evidence of firing residue. Mechanics are fine. THE SUPPRESSOR IN THIS LOT IS A NATIONAL FIREARMS ACT ITEM AND REQUIRES BATF APPROVAL PRIOR TO TRANSFER. THIS ITEM IS FULLY TRANSFERABLE ON AN ATF FORM 3 OR 4.
