# They relate to choke type, i.e., full, modified....
4 notches = cylinder choke (open), and one notch = full choke (tight)
Inspector marks, choke marks, general information.
Depends on what they are. Could be choke markings, proof mark, etc..

Haven't seen that marking. Choke markings on Browning shotguns are coded by a series of asterisks and dashes. They also had a marking called 'ACIER SPECIAL' which simply means special steel, indicating the gun was suitable for smokeless powder.
If that is in fact the complete serial number, it is NOT a 'Sweet Sixteen.' You have a standard-weight Auto-5 16ga shotgun made in 1927. The Sweet Sixteen is a specific lightweight model introduced in 1936. Which markings are you looking at? The Belgian guns have quite a few different proofmarks, and then there are the choke markings. sales@countrygunsmith.net
Basically, no choke at all
"If you mean CG 125 then yes.It is in the carborator" No he does mean the CBF and yes it does but it is an automatic choke
probably proof markings
The choke light on a 1980 El Camino indicates that there is a problem with the electric choke on the carburetor. Causes range from loose wires to a defective choke.
