I have a Remington 11 in 12 gauge, it looks identical to the A-5. Maybe Remington made them for Browning early on. Does anyone know?
Remington licensed the design from Browning. FN had the European license, and Remington had the US license. Later, Savage also licensed the design. I have a Savage 745 which is almost identical to the Browning A5 except there is no magazine cutoff, the receiver is aluminum, and that thing kicks the bejesus out of my shoulder with all of that recoiling mass of the barrel and bolt.
Remington 11 was made on the 1900 Browning Patent.
