You did not give us the model, so we will refer you to the Browning site that decodes the serial number for your model. http://www.browning.com/support/date-your-firearm.html
Please specify the model and guage
Impossible to answer without a detalied description of all features and markings.
A few hundred to tens of thousands of USD depending on EXACTLY what you have, its condition, accessories, box, papers, etc..
I am trying to find out the value of my Browning Acier Special C 12 guage Shotgun KG 8663 Serial number 307368
Most Browning guns were made in Belgium by Fabrique Nationale (FN) until the mid 1970s when some production was shifted to Miroku in Japan. Today's Browning firearms are made in either Belgium, Portugal, Japan or in the United States.
Many thousands made.
what shells can be used in a browning 16 guage autoloader
Basically impossible to value with just themodel provided. Finish? Condition? Box? Papers? Length of barrel(s)?
was the browning 16 guage ever caled aoozie?
What is the model and guage?
Which guage and model, and also is the number just 83788 or ??? The 98 at the end is not correct. Please re-check and ask again. Thank you
Sounds like you have an "American Browning" made from 1940-1949. These guns were made by Remington under contract to Browning during the German Occupation of Belgium when Browning could not import their Belgium guns. They do not say Remington anywhere on the gun, but essentially were made like the Remington Model 11, with the addition of the magazine cutoff. Browning specified that the serial numbers start at 5000 for each guage preceded by a letter to denote guage. A= 16ga / B=12ga / C= 20ga. Thus serial number B5000 was the first 12ga made in 1940. The serial number is on the left side of the receiver.
