You need to provide a DETAILED description of ALL markings.
Actually began production in 1912. Best estimate is c.1919-1920. Should have only FN markings and Browning's Patent Depose markings - no Browning Arms Co markings. sales@countrygunsmith.net go to browning.com and check services tab. menu will show "how to date your gun". *** Not Listed *** Unfortunately, Browning's excellent website does not list the FN Model 1910.
It is assumed you have a Auto-5 shotgun. This gun was made in 1928, providing it is the complete serial number. (The "D" has no bearing on the serial number) The markings are in French, not German. If there is no "Browning Arms Co." stamped on the barrel, then your gun barrel is stamped with the phrase "acier special". This means special steel and the gun is an FN gun, not Browning. FN stands for Fabrique Nationale which was the Manufacturer of all Belgian Browning guns. They also made guns that they sold under their own name, which sounds like the gun you have. FN guns are not as collectable as Brownings, and the poly choke really hurts value. Of course value depends on condition, but in this case you are probably looking at a gun between $250 and $400.
The Fabrique Nationale Model 22 pistol typically features several German markings, particularly when produced during the German occupation of Belgium in World War II. These may include the "WaA" (Waffenamt) acceptance stamp, indicating military acceptance, along with the manufacturer's code and possibly a serial number. Additionally, some models might have "FN" markings and the year of manufacture. However, specific markings can vary based on the production batch and the period of manufacture.
FN-P90
It was created and patented by FN Hersal, the gun company.
Not a one. FN made firearms for Browning.
The gun was made in Belgium; by FN (Fabrique Nationale) in Liège.

These are mostly proofing marks and caliber and barrel length markings. There are books on the market that define Belgian proof marks
Acier special means Special steel, and barrels marked this way are only on FN sales guns, not Browning Arms Co. FN produced the guns for sale outside the US and were not imported to be sold by the Browning Co. Providing this is the complete serial number without a letter above or preceding the number, then this gun was made in 1907. It is an FN Auto-5, not a Browning Arms Company A5. The FN version is mechanically the same as the Browning version, but markings and finish may be different.

Acier special means Special steel, and barrels marked this way are only on FN sales guns, not Browning. FN produced the guns for sale outside the US and were not imported to be sold by the Browning Co. This gun was made in 1954, but it sounds like it is an FN Auto-5, not a Browning Arms Company A5. The gun will likely have the Browning Bust and or Brownings patent stamped on it, but no receiver engraving. The FN version is mechanically the same as the Browning version, but markings and finish may be different. Although the Blue Book of gun values doesn't differentiate these guns from the ornate Brownings, prices are lower because of the engraving. If your gun has an engraved receiver, then it's possible that the barrel was fitted, and not original to the gun. Value is too difficult to be accurate without seeing the gun. Condition which includes the amount of original finish and original configuration will determine value. Auto 5's with recoil pads (other than Mag 12's) poly-chokes and compensators will reduce value. Recommend taking it to a gun shop for appraisal, but keep in mind that few appraisers know the information and history of the FN guns.
