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.

The old joke is to saw it in half, and count the rings- But really, there is no ONE way. Some firearms, such as Ruger and Browning, have serial number year ranges on their websites under Customer Service. Winchesters can be dated from serial numbers, either by contacting Winchester, or the Cody Museum in Wyoming. Remington rifles are dated by a letter barrel code. Some guns HAVE no serial numbers (not required until 1968),and can only be dated to the YEARS that the model was made. If you can be a bit more specific, so can we.
With the serial number that you have provided,your Winchester model 1894 rifle was made in the year 1938.A Winchester model 1894 of this age will bring a minimum of between 400-550 dollars.If your rifle has alot of original finish remaining,and a good bore it could be up to 600 dollars.If your rifle has any special order features such as shotgun style butt stock,half octagon half round barrel,half magazine,checkered butt stock,special order wood etc. then it may bring in excess of 1,000 dollars.
