Description:
Offered here is an exceptional custom engraved Browning Superposed chambered in the elegant and highly desirable .410 bore, featuring 28” barrels and master engraving by renowned American engraver Phil Coggan. Built during the golden era of Browning Superposed production, this shotgun represents a refined blend of Belgian craftsmanship and bespoke artistic enhancement.
The Browning Superposed has long stood as one of the most respected over/under shotguns ever produced. Designed by John M. Browning and finalized by his son Val Browning, the Superposed was the last firearm design personally overseen by John Browning. Belgian made examples from the 1960s are especially valued for their fit, finish, and mechanical longevity.
This particular example is elevated far beyond standard production through full custom engraving executed by Phil Coggan, a highly regarded engraver known for his detailed game scenes and refined scrollwork. His work is widely respected among collectors for its depth, balance, and traditional European influence blended with American sporting themes.
The receiver and furniture display detailed hand-cut engraving attributed to Phil Coggan. The work exhibits strong relief, precise line control, and elegant composition consistent with high grade custom sporting arms. Game scenes and scroll elements are executed with excellent depth and contrast, enhancing both visual appeal and collector value.
Custom engraved Superposed shotguns of this quality represent a niche but highly sought-after segment of the fine sporting arms market, particularly when paired with the desirable .410 bore configuration.

From a collector standpoint, the combination of Belgian manufacture, small bore chambering, and documented custom engraving by a known engraver significantly enhances long term desirability. This is not merely a firearm, but a functional piece of sporting art.
This Browning Superposed .410 represents a rare opportunity to acquire a classic Belgian over/under elevated by true custom craftsmanship. Whether destined for a fine gun collection or selective sporting use, it stands as a distinguished example of 20th century gunmaking and engraving artistry.
