Did the Belgium Browning A5 with a 8xxx serial number ever have a safety behind the trigger?
By this 4 digit number, the gun was made in 1904, but it would be an FN gun. Sure there isn't a Letter above or preceding the number? Cross Bolt safeties were introduced with some guns in 1951, and standard by 1952. Any Front trigger safety could be converted by the Browning service center to a cross bolt safety.

What year did Browning change from the front safety to the cross-bolt safety on the classic A5 shotgun?
1952 was the first year that FN made Brownings with the cross bolt safety as standard. I have seen a few guns made in 51 with the cross bolt and I have seen at least one 1952 gun with a front trigger safety. Many of the older guns were converted by Browning to switch the front trigger safety to crossbolt. You can tell this if there is a slot in the front of the trigger guard. If the customer paid, he could have a new trigger guard installed along with the conversion, thus it is not possible to date a gun by the safety alone. FN continued the front trigger on their guns that they sold worldwide until the early 60's. These were not Browning Arms Co. guns
What is the Date of Manufacture of a Remington Model 11 Shot Gun SN 321509?
Between 1931 and 1937. It will have the sliding safety in front of the trigger instead of the button type located behind the trigger. Some of these guns have the manufacturers code on the left side of the barrel near the chamber. There were about 43000 of these guns made on the Browning patent from 1905 to 1947.
Is a browning auto 5 with safety in front of the trigger guard a Belgium made gun?
Yes, a Browning Auto-5 with the safety located in front of the trigger guard is typically a Belgium-made gun. The original Auto-5 was produced in Belgium from 1900 until the 1970s, and the design featured this safety placement. If the gun has other identifying marks, such as a Belgian proof mark, it further confirms its origin.
I have sweet 16-1948 SN X18xxx that does not have gold trigger has 3 holes in barrel ring and scripted sweet sixteen on left side why no gold trigger?
Answer If the gun has a cross bolt safety, it means that it was converted by Browning. This gun was made with the safety in the front of the trigger guard. Many times the gun would be converted and the new trigger was blued. If your safety is in the front of the trigger guard, then best explanation would be that it was replaced from repair, or that the gun was refinished. A sweet 16 that came from the factory at FN would be rare not to have a gold trigger. The answer is most likely something else besides a mistake from FN. If it's important to you, contact Browning and see if you can have them plate or replace your trigger.
