No. 'Browning' hasn't been Browning in a long time. It is owned by a Belgian corporation. Likewise, 'Winchester' has not been Winchester in a long time. It became US Repeating Arms Company years ago, and is now owned by the same Belgian corporation that owns the Browning name. The actual 'Winchester' trade-name is owned by the Olin Corporation (used to make the guns, now just makes the ammunition) and was licensed to USRAC. USRAC made the Model 70, Model 1300 and Model 94 at their plant in New Haven CT, which was closed as of March 2006. There are no plans for those three models to be produced anywhere else, per USRAC. They will continue to produce their other models which are actually made overseas. The USRAC plant in New Haven, along with all fixtures, tooling, etc, is currently for sale. The winning buyer will have the opportunity to negotiate with the Olin Corporation for licensing the Winchester name. It is not a package deal. So, it IS possible that we will see Model 70's, Model 94's and Model 1300's back in production - but under a different brand name, and possibly even from another country. sales@countrygunsmith.net

What is the connection between the Winchester model 52 and the Browning model 52 sporter?
From what I've seen, the Brownings action is essentially identical to the Winchesters.The Winchester came out in the 1920's and were discontinued in the 1960'sI don't believe the Browning came out until 1990.My guess would be that Browning saw a market for a good quality .22.I have seen a few Winchester 52 sporters, but I have no idea about their pedagree.Most of them came from the factory as target /match setups with long barrels and vernier sights.The Browning is a fine gun, but there's this mystique that goes with the Winchester 52...and the Winchester sells for 3 times what the Browning goes for.
