Can you give us the model of the rifle? The letter "n" could not be used to identify the model. More info is needed.
This is an Auto-5 Shotgun
If you have the FN 1900, also called the Browning #1, it was produced from 1899-1907 and there were 700,000 made. It will have "Fabrique Nationale-Herstal-Belgique (Brownings Patent)" inascribed on the left side of the pistol. Under that it will have Fabrique Nationale's icon with a small picture of a pistol and a circle around it. Under that it will have " BREVETE-S.G.D.G." which is a french term for the patent process. It was used on many things including clocks. Hope this helps.
Yes, but not easy to find.
Basically impossible to value with just the serial number.
You can find information right here on WikiAnswers. You have a gun that was made by Fabrique Nationale (FN) in Herstal Belgium. FN made the Belgian Browning guns that Browning imported and sold under their own name. Most of these guns were also made and sold by FN to other World Markets; Technically, these guns are not Brownings, but FN guns. Most of the early brownings & FN guns have all these marking on their guns, with the exception of "Acier Special" which means Special Steel. Acier Special was only stamped on the FN guns, and never the Browning Arms Co. Guns. Provide the model, guage, serial number, and your question. Please give us a try to answer it for you. Thank you
I can say that it was made after 1977, but for more specific information, you will have to contact browning customer service.
