I am trying to help my father who purchased a shotgun at a pawn shop. He has always been a fan of the Browning Auto 5 and has a couple Belgian ones (made by Fabrique Nationale (FN)). The one he just purchased is NOT a Browning unit- it is made by FN and other than a reference to the Browning patent, it does not mention Browning. The unit is in fair to good shape and my father is interested in replacing some of the screws that were messed up by the previous owner as well as the recoil spring carrier that is covered by the stock. I am looking for a source of info on this shotgun as well as a source for parts. I have found replacement parts for the Browning Auto 5, but am interested in finding out year of manufacture, value, and exact replacements if possible. Any assistance would be appreciated.
