B-78 schematic
« on: November 29, 2011, 11:23:53 AM »
 Can someone please help me by posting or sending me a schematic of 70s era B-78. I am having problem with extractor or ejector. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've owned both the B-78's and 1885's, but all I can offer is a pdf file for the 1885's.   Ought to be close enough though.

If you check out Texasmac.com he has an article comparing the B78 to the 1885, the guts are different. Wasn't a B78 diagram on Brownell's either
For some reason I can't seem to copy & paste the link for you

There is a thread on ASSRA under gunsmithing group, from Mar 20th 2010 that shows a partial diagram and a few comments.

Generally confused is a normal state of affairs, let me know if I ever figure it out.

Gary Chatham of the Browning Collectors Ass'n bought ALL the spares for the B78's from Browning. He probably has the schematics available as well.
I don't have his contact info any more, but you may be able to find it at browningcollectors dot com
