You did not state the model, but there was an Automatic-5 with that number made in 1953.
1996. The serial indicates the guns were manufactured in New Jersey state.
Seeing that you did not state what gauge your shotgun is in,the Browning auto-5 shotgun chambered in 12 gauge with the serial number 49322 was made in 1921,if you have a 16 gauge model auto-5 shotgun then it was made in the year 1926.
Please state the guage and condition of the gun
You will need to call Browning.If your shotgun has the serial number 96052,in 16 gauge then it was made in the year 1932.The serial numbers for a 16 gauge shotgun that year were 94001-96072.These were not Sweet Sixteen shotguns thou.The Sweet sixteen model shotgun was made from 1937-1975.If besides the serial number you have a letter prefix,or a letter and number prefix then please state this in your question for the correct year of production of your shotgun.
You must state if it is a rifle, revolver, semi-automatic handgun, rifle or shotgun.
The Bay State line of economy-priced shotguns was produced by none other than .....Harrington and Richardson, in the early 20th century.
If you have a Browning auto-5 shotgun in 16 gauge(you do not state)then it was made in the year 1928.
You do not state who manufactured your M-1 Garand rifle?I will say that if it was made by Springfield then it was produced in the year 1942.
While you do not state what gauge your browning auto-5 shotgun is in?I can say that if you have a 12 gauge model it was made in 1927.If you have a 16 gauge then it was made in 1930.based on the serial number that you provided.
