    Browning BAR History

    The production of the BAR high power rifle began in 1967 and lasted through 1992. The BAR Mark II series was introduced in 1993 and is still in production.

    Historic Information Serial Number Info
    1967-75

    In 1969 Browning started using two digits for the date of manufacture:

    M=BAR High Power Rifle

    This was then followed by the serial number beginning with 1000.

    Example: 69M1000 = A 1969 BAR High Power rifle with a serial number of 1000.

    M=BAR High Power Rifle

    1976-1992

    In 1975 Browning standardized its serial number identification which it followed until 1998.

    1. BAR Type: 137=BAR High Power Rifle
    2. Date of Manufacture is a two digit code:
      Z=1, Y=2, X=3, W=4, V=5, T=6, R=7, P=8, N=9, M=0
    3. Serial Number beginning with 01001 at the start of each year.

    Serial Number Example:

    137RT01001

    This would be a BAR High Power Rifle, manufactured in 1977 with the serial number 01001.

    1993-1997

    In 1993 Browning introduced the BAR Mark II series.

    1. BAR Mark II Type:
      107=BAR Mark II Safari
      1D7=BAR Mark II Lightweight
    2. Date of Manufacture is a two digit code:
      Z=1, Y=2, X=3, W=4, V=5, T=6, R=7, P=8, N=9, M=0
    3. Serial Number beginning with 01001 at the start of each year.

    Serial Number Example:

    107NX01001

    This would be a BAR Mark II Safari, manufactured in 1993 with the serial number 01001.

    1998

    In 1998 Browning redid the standardization of its serial number identifications to work with its new data base program, Oracle.

    1. BAR Mark II Type: 311=BAR Mark II
    2. Date of Manufacture is a two digit code:
      Z=1, Y=2, X=3, W=4, V=5, T=6, R=7, P=8, N=9, M=0
    3. Serial Number beginning with 01001 at the start of each year.

    Serial Number Example:

    311NN01001

    This would be a BAR Mark II rifle, manufactured in 1999 with the serial number 01001.

    BAR Timing Latch
    3 out of 5
    Steve

    The part would not work in the rifle I was working on. The bolt would not close with this part installed. Probably a misunderstanding on my part about which generation of BAR I was working with. Nothing wrong with the part that I could see.

    Modification needed for older T2 BAR

    I replaced the bolt and timing latch for my older T2 BAR. The new version timing latch will need slight modification to fit the older T2 BAR receiver. I still had the older, broken timing latch and traced its contour on to the newer replacement. A quick reshaping with a bench grinder and a file and she was good to go.
