I will start with browning.com has a serial number service under customer service that will help you identify the year of production of your B-78 single shot rifle.The browning model B-78 was made during the years 1973-1982.I would have to say that all B-78 rifles were made by Mirouku of japan for browning,and these were fine made rifles.

Browning.com has a sn function under customer service
Having trouble identifying the model. In 1979 (date indicated by your sn), Browning produces the BBR bolt-action rifle, the B78 single-shot and the BAR semiautomatic rifle in 7mm Remington Magnum, but none of those had that 117 designation. What type of rifle do you have?
Marketed as the B78, this gun was made in Japan from 1973 thru 1982. The model was reintroduced as the model 1885 in the year 1985
It happens. Does not add any real value.
I am aware of only the following calibers in the B78: 22 250; 6mm Rem, 7mm Rem Mag; 30 06 and 45 70.
