Browning BAR MK3 DBM 308 10 rd Semi Auto Fixed - 031054218

The Browning BAR MK3 DBM 308 is a reliable, hard-working semi-automatic rifle built for hunters and shooters who value practical performance in the field. This short-action .308 Winchester combines proven gas-piston operation with a lightweight, durable design that won't wear you out over a long day of hunting. The 18-inch hammer-forged barrel and chrome-plated chamber are engineered for consistent accuracy and easy maintenance, while the detachable 10-round magazine lets you reload quickly when it counts.

Weighing just 6 pounds 10 ounces, the BAR MK3 DBM is nimble enough for backcountry hunts and energetic enough for driven game. The aluminum alloy receiver keeps weight down without sacrificing rigidity, and the matte blued finish on the barrel pairs with matte black on the receiver and composite stock for a no-nonsense look that won't catch light in the field. Pre-drilled and tapped for scope bases, it's ready for glass straight out of the box.

Browning's attention to ergonomics shows in the overmolded grip panels, polymer recoil pad, and integral steel sling swivel studs—all the right touches for a rifle that's meant to be carried and used, not just admired. The gold-plated trigger with the iconic Buck Mark engraving on the composite trigger guard adds a bit of character to a workhorse platform. At 37.5 inches overall with a 14.375-inch length of pull, it fits a wide range of shooters comfortably.
