belgium browning A5

marcus396
picked up a nice A5 Magnum recently and trying to figure out what year of mfg, 3V 9xxx 32" vent rib special steel 3" 12 gauge, and has 26" belgium smooth bore bbl adjustable sites, I am gonna say 1963, but just got her home and cleaning her up, will try to post pics later, should 32" bbl have matching numbers or were they different thanks

edit the 26" bbl was a slug bbl that had adjustable sites, sorry for the confusion, it also was belgium made, sorry for confusion, thankshttp://i465.photobucket.com/albums/rr19/marcus396/007.jpg

    Hello,

    The "3V" tells us that it is a 1963 12 gauge Magnum gun.

    During that time period, the barrel serial numbers did not match the gun, or any additional barrels.

    The adjustable sights are on the 26" barrel.
