Browning BLR Lightweight '81 Takedown Stainless

The Browning BLR Lightweight '81 Takedown Stainless is a fast-handling lever-action centrefire hunting rifle built for shooters who want classic lever-gun handling with modern rifle cartridge performance.

The BLR design uses a detachable box magazine, allowing it to chamber modern centrefire hunting cartridges while still offering the quick follow-up shot capability of a lever-action rifle. Browning lists the BLR range with lightweight models, stainless-barrelled options and takedown versions.

The takedown design allows the rifle to be separated into two halves for more compact transport or storage, making it a practical choice for hunters travelling in vehicles, packing gear into camp, or wanting a rifle that stores neatly when broken down.

The stainless takedown configuration gives the rifle a tough field-ready setup, with a stainless barrel, satin nickel style receiver finish and grey laminate stock commonly associated with this model. The BLR Lightweight '81 Stainless Takedown is well suited to deer, pigs, goats and general hunting where legal and appropriate.

Please note: Firearms must be stored, transported and used in accordance with your local laws and licensing requirements. Always confirm calibre, magazine capacity, barrel length and individual firearm specifications before purchase.
