50-600 usd
The browning auto-5 shotguns are going for anywhere from 375-650 dollars depending on condition.
As long as your Browning model auto-5 shotgun is not chambered in 16ga with a 2 9/16in chamber,then the value will be between 350-550 dollars depending on overall condition.
I believe it was from 1962 onward.
if the gauge and chamber length are the same
11 + 1 in the chamber
Your Browning auto-5 shotgun in 16ga.was produced for Browning by FN of Belguim in the year 1924,with the serial number that you provided.These fine made shotguns range in price from 375-550 dollars,depending on the overall condition of the shotgun and a finish ranging from 60%-90%.Beware that any Browning 16ga shotgun could be ordered with a 2 9/16in chamber prior to the year 1928.If you have such a shotgun the value would be half of what was quoted,and dangerious to shoot.I would have a competent gunsmith check your chamber length to be sure.
Give it a good cleaning, check the recoil spring.
What are the other markings on the barrel? Does the serial number on the bottom of the barrel match the one on the reciever? sales@countrygunsmith.net
To my Knowledge Browning or for that matter any gunmaker has never made a 16 gauge shotgun with a 4in.chamber.In order to get the answer that you seek,you will need to include the model of Browning shotgun in question along with the serial number(to date the year of manufacture) and the overall condition of your shotgun.
From Browning's website - "allowing the shooter to retain shells in the magazine and eject a shell from the chamber without feeding from the magazine."
Yes it can, however it is not as simple as lengthening the chamber in the barrel. There are in fact 12 different modifications that must be made to the shotgun to have it work properly with the longer shell. Contact the Browning service dept for a quote. Browning is the best source to have this done.
Your Browning auto-5 magnum shotgun which has a 2V prefix identifies your shotgun as a Browning auto-5 magnum model,which was made in the year 1962.
