Disassembly guide for Browning BSS
I have a Browning BSS (boxlock, not sidelock model) non-selector that I need to take apart. Can anyone steer me to a guide or video on the web to fully disassemble this shotgun?

Thanks,
Kyler

I'll look in the Browning shop manual tomorrow and see if there is anything there.

I believe it's pretty much an Anson Deeley boxlock of which I'd venture 95% of English boxlocks are.

A good book for takedown and cleaning is AMATEUR GUNSMITHING by Mills and Barnes.

WOW, no wonder doubles cost so damned much.

"toss it in the box" with all the other parts".

Reminds me of taking an automatic transmission apart when my cousin was late getting there to do it. I'd laid all the bolts, springs etc in rows as they'd come out.
First thing Del asked is: "what the hell is this?"
Then just raked it all into a can of solvent!

Sure glad he was there to put it all back together again. Bet Larry feels the same way with this guy doing it.

Thanks for all the help guys, but I'm still not finding what I'm looking for. So far the Anson Deeley stuff I've found is different enough that it's not getting me there.

Bobster, I don't see a new PM.

Thanks

I believe one of the NRA Assembly guides has the information you are looking for.

Unfortunately mine are 2000 miles away so I can not tell you what one it is.

Sent again. Don't know why first one didn't go through.

I just checked, not in the NRA shotgun guide.

I know I saw one some place because I used it for my BSS.

But that was decades ago just guess on my part.

Send Butch Searcy a PM. He knows those very well since he made his first double rifles on that frame.
