My Browning A5 20ga serial number is 9Z over 30242 with a round knob and an FB butt plate and "twenty" on the magazine. Could someone tell me the year and anything else about this gun? Was it Belgium made, etc.?

  Thanks. I have my Grandfather's Cannon Breech 12ga single barrel 30" barrel. This gun was used way back when they had shooting matches. I guess my GF won too much so someone stole it and cut 6 inches off of it. It is still full choke. I also have a Steven's 410 double that is my first gun. I also have my Dad's Browning Sweet 16. I want to buy a vent rib for it. Also have a Beretta O/U silver pigeon 20/28 two barrels and a winchester 62A, and a 1965 Browning semi-auto breakdown 22 LR. I also have a two French Unique 52s and a Ruger single action 44 mag. I guess the only thing I may buy is a O/U old derringer.
  
  Thanks
