The best I can tell it is a browning A5( IF IT IS IN 90% OR BETTER
IY IS WORTH THE MONEY) But with out having it in my hand I
can not make A firm appraisal. If it is below 90% it would be more like 450.00
See if you can take a better pic and try not to make this one so large.

Afternoon,

Belgium made Brownings are pricy. If yours is in excellent condition ...is it a "magnum" or standard...magnums bring on average a higher price I would estimate in the 500-700 range depending on model age and condition, perhaps a bit more, but that is a guess. I have seen nice brownings in pawn shops for 350-500 and at gun shows for 800-1200....location location location.

If you want to do a little research on it....a quikkie place would be www.gunbroker.com People sell guns at this site...many descriptions and pictures. You can find just about anything there with a quick search.

If you want more I recommend this book. Blue Book of Gun Values by SP Fjestad....it is in its 28th edition now I believe. One of the best references I know of.

Hope this helps.

I agree with kenley...Browning A5....the humpback. In a 12 ga,
it kicked like a mule!!!
