What Springfield Company are you referring too? Browning didn't have a Company in Springfield, but they did have their operations in St Louis Missouri. The Headquarters for the Browning Companies was in Ogden for many years, known as Browning Bros. and also the JM & MS Browning Co. In 1927 they created the Browning Arms Company in the United States to sell under that name the gun imports from Belgium. In 1931 Browning moved their Sales and distribution operations from Ogden to St. Louis Missouri and it remained there until 1964 when they moved to Morgan Utah. Browning guns are all from the same Company that imported, made and sold guns known as Browning's. Most all the Browning guns were made in Belgium and Japan, however some people have had confusion over the guns made in the USA, St. Louis Mo. These guns are the auto-5's that Remington made for Browning during WWII. They were actually made in New York by Remington, not in St Louis.
No, not neccesarily. Some American made auto 5 shotguns say on the barrel: "Browning Arms Co. St. Louis Mo." Nowhere will it say made in Belgium if this is the case. If the barrel is correct to the receiver and the barrel says made in Belgium, then it is.
This is what is called an American Browning. These guns were produced by Remington in the US (New York) for Browning after Belgium was overun by the Germans in WWII. The guns were made using Remingtons model 11 equipment. A few modifications were made to incorporate more of the Browning features and were all stamped Browning Arms Co. St. Louis Mo. Your gun sn: A8539 was made and shipped to Browning in 1941.
