Enter your Browning A5 serial number to estimate the production year, identify Belgian FN, Remington, or Miroku manufacture, and learn the likely model family including Sweet Sixteen, Light Twelve, Magnum, and standard Auto-5 shotguns.
Use the complete receiver serial number, including all letters and prefixes. Browning changed serial-number formats several times, so the letters are just as important as the digits. After using the lookup tool, compare the result with the receiver markings, barrel markings, proof marks, and overall configuration.

This Browning Auto-5 serial number lookup is intended as a collector reference only. Serial number systems can overlap, factory records may vary, and individual firearms may have been repaired, refinished, rebarreled, or assembled from parts during their lifetime.
Treat the result as a helpful starting point, not a factory letter, appraisal, authentication, or legal determination. Always confirm markings, barrel codes, proof marks, configuration, and condition before drawing a final conclusion.
