Your Browning challenger was made in the year 1968,with the serial number that you supplied.
YOu will either have to call Browning or see if their website is up and look under customer service.
Your Browning challenger with the suffix of U6 to the serial number indicates that it was made in the year 1966.The Browning Challenger was available from 1959-1974.
It was made in 1965
The very first A5s were made in Belgium in 1903. Several thousand were made for import to Browning and were marked "Browning Automatic Arms CO." After the first several Thousand, were shipped to Browning in the US, Fabrique Nationale (FN) made the gun for worldwide sales outside the United States. No more guns came into the US for 20 years. In 1923, Browning became "Browning Arms Co." and started importing guns from Belgium.
The U74 suffix to your serial number indicates that your Browning challenger was made in the year 1974.This also revels that you have a Challenger I because the Browning challenger II was not made until 1975.You should have Plastic wraparound grips which were only made on the challenger I in 1974.The challenger I was produced from 1962-1974.The challenger II was made from 1975-1982.I hope this helps?
