Browning "Sweet Sixteen"

[BlueGold]

Im not sure if I should have asked this here or in General, but here it is. I have a Browning Auto 5 "Sweet Sixteen" 16 gauge shotgun, vent rib barrel, gold colored trigger, in excellent condition that was made in Belgium and wanted to know what it is worth.

Any info would be appreciated.

Somewhat depends on condition. We need pics.

I wasn't really looking for pin point accuracy on what it's worth, just a fairly close figure. The problem is I'm really terrible at posting pictures

If it's absolutley necessary, I'll give it a shot.

$ 700 if in great shape for a collector, if some use 95% ish , maybe $500-550 for a shooter eh

or less, if in average condition or poorer. That's why pics are important.

They go nuts for them in the U.S., but that is there and not here.

You could go to shotgun world on the 'net to see.

A gentleman by the name of Jeff Mull posts there and here too. He's the man for Browning A5 knowledge!

Can guns be sold over the border? I looked at a site there as well a few minutes ago and they are sky high there.

Like what was said there is there here is here in Canada realistically $300.00 - 450.00

Almost impossible to get them across the line -- The best way is if you can find a US dealer that has a import lic and is a FFL, that is near a border crossing. You must have a buyer, other than the importer, in the US in order to start a long and complicated proceedure.
