What is the value of an American Browning A5?

Answer 1

American Brownings were produced by Remington in the US (New York) for Browning after Belgium was overun by the Germans in WWII. The guns were made using Remingtons model 11 equipment. A few modifications were made to incorporate more of the Browning features and were all stamped Browning Arms Co. St. Louis mo. 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. American Auto 5's with recoil pads, poly-chokes and compensators will reduce value. Expect $250-$600 range for American A5's. In 98% + condition, the gun could command a higher premium, but most American A5s were cheaper than Belgiums and were used in the field often. Typical Condition of these guns will usually sell in the $300-400 range. Recommend taking it to a gun shop for appraisal.
