To set the default browser on a Mac use the browser's Preferences:

Any available browser can be set as the default in the General section of Safari's Preferences. The "Default web browser" drop down menu will list all available browsers on the Mac so you can select which you want to use as the default.

In the Advanced section of the Firefox Preferences tick the "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup" box

In the Basics section of the Chrome Preferences click on the "Make Google Chrome my default browser" button.
