It made them for more than one year since the 30s
No.None of the browning auto-5 shotguns left the factory with a adjustable choke.This was a after market add-on.
They made identical shotguns in other gauges, but if it is not a 16 gauge, it is an Auto-5, not a Sweet Sixteen.
NAFAIK.
One might recognize the two names Browning and Remington. They still make 16 gauge shotguns, as do a few other manufacturers.
From 1940 to 1946 production of the Auto-5 was turned over to Remington. Serial number is on the side of receiver. "ABC" for American made Version. (A=16 gauge, B-12 gauge, C=20 gauge).
No
No.Savage made these shotguns,but paid patent rights to Browning for the use of John M Brownings design for there shotgun.
No.
Both the sweet sixteen model and the regular production semi auto shotguns were Browning auto-5 shotgun models.The regular Browning auto-5 shotgun had engraving on the receivers just like the sweet-sixteen.
Browning did not make a Model 755. Savage made a 755 that was similar to the Auto 5.
All my research indicates that browning never offered the auto-5 shotgun in .410 gauge.
Unsure of your meaning of "break away shotgun". If you mean breakdown shotguns like double barrels they continue to make several different models.
