6592.0. "value of a Browning semi..." by STOWOA::MCNULTY_M () Mon Feb 10 1997 07:14

    I was wondering if anyone has an idea of how much a Browning semi-auto
    shot gun goes for?? It says made in Belguim (sp?) It also has a
    mechanism on it that keeps the shells in the tube so you can change
    loads without emptying the whole gun. The gun is in mint condition.
    It was inherated..... I was told it was made around the 1950's.
    Thanks in advance.

    Mike,
    
              Sounds like an A5 model. Remington produced a look-a-like in
    a model 11. The gun was offered in a Light (2 3/4") or Magnum (3"). If
    the gun is in the condition you state is wirth $300 and up. It is also
    highly recommended that you DO NOT shot Steel Shot out of the early
    Brownings. The barrels are made of a softer metal and the steel wears
    the barrel thinner over extended use.
