Made in 1996
Mid 80's
No. Not recommended. The barrel walls are not fit for screw in chokes. Belgian A-5 barrels that had that procedure done in the 60's and 70's were mostly unsuccesful. The barrels ended up being cut down or discarded. Aftermarket screw in chokes worked well with the Over/Under Browning guns, but not the Automatics. It's recommended to purchase a Japanese made barrel (with invector chokes) and have it fitted to your Belgian gun.
Made in 1993. 325's were made from 88-95 and came with Invector chokes.
These Japanese made A5's were selling from $800-$1200 this past year.

Value is too difficult to be accurate without seeing the gun. Condition which includes the amount of original finish and original configuration will determine value. Auto 5's with poly-chokes, compensators and recoil pads (other than Mag 12's) will reduce value. Near mint guns and original box will command an extra premium. Recommend taking it to a gun shop for appraisal.
