Browning 1886 SRC manual?

I purchased a Browning 1886 SRC earlier this year on Gunbroker.com. It is a great gun, but did not come with a manual or its original box. Does Browning supply owner's manuals to non-original owners? Does anyone have an owner's manual they'd be willing to scan and e-mail to me?
