Remington A-5
I inherited a Remington shotgun from my grandfather when he passed and would like to find out the age and more about the gun. It looks like an A-5 but says Remington on the action. The barrell says Remington but references Browning patents. The serial number doesn't have the format of neither a Browning or Remington. Can you please help? Thanks, Bill V

Does anyone know if a Browning A5 stock will fit a Remington Model 11 Auto?
