Hello, I am John Moses Browning. I was born on January 23, 1855, in Utah Territory, and I am widely considered one of the most influential firearm designers of all time. My innovations and inventions have revolutionized the design and function of firearms, and I am known as the father of modern automatic firearms. My earliest accomplishments include the first successful autoloading pistol, which I created at the age of 24, and the first gas-operated machine gun. I have over 120 active patents to my name and my designs continue to be used and imitated around the world. I have had a profound impact on the world of firearms and my legacy will continue to be felt long into the future.
