I bought these "his and hers" guns from a friend of my father who bought them during the war for trips they used to make to the Georgia islands by pooling their gas ration cards and by my father converting their cars to run on kerosene after warming up on gas. He sold them to me for my wife and I. I just dug it out of the safe. A beautiful gun marked at the end of the fore end "Browning 3 Shot" with raised matted rib and magazine cutoff. Serial is a "B" 11xxx (might be a 40-42 number) so Remington made in WWII. Very full choke and the 3 shot as you might expect for a gun to be used for waterfowl.

The Auto-3 was also marketed as a lighter weight gun, one that handled a bit faster.
I had a true Belgian made Auto-3 that I sold because, oddly enough given this thread, the bore was so terribly pitted.
I sure miss that one
