No, not neccesarily. Some American made auto 5 shotguns say on the barrel: "Browning Arms Co. St. Louis mo." Nowhere will it say made in Belgium if this is the case. If the barrel is correct to the receiver and the barrel says made in Belgium, then it is.

What is the value and age of Browning 12 gauge shotgun model number 1005?

If this was all the number there was, then the gun was made in 1903 and the barrel says: "Browning Automatic Arms Co." If not, then the serial number has a letter or letter and number above the four digits which will identify it. Check and ask again if this is the case.

Where did a browning 16gauge acier come from?

The term "acier special" is found on many Auto-5 shotguns. It is French for "special steel". The stamp "acier special" found on barrels are for Fabrique Nationale guns, and NOT Browning Arms Co. guns. Fabrique Nationale (FN) was the manufacturer of all Belgian Browning guns. Browning was simply an importer and bought guns with their name on them to sell in the United States. FN was licensed to make and sell some of these models World Wide outside the US. If it says "acier" on the barrel then, you probably have an FN gun. It's possible to have one of these barrels fitted on a genuine Browning gun, but then the receiver would identify the mix & match. FN Auto 5's as a custom, used the term Browning patent on many of their guns along with acier special. These guns never were sold in the US, but somehow made it to the states from overseas. Many guns were brought by returning US servicemen from WWII and so on.
