Browning Auto-5 "Light Twelve", 12 ga. auto shotgun.  Serial #L2623, mfg Belgium, 1954.  Very good condition.  28” vent rib barrel has clean, shiny bore, 93% blue.  2 ¾” chamber, choked MOD.  Receiver and trigger guard have 93% blue with light edge wear, couple dinged screws in lower tang.  Stock and fore arm have very good glossy finish and checkering with few minor handling marks and some finish wear on forearm.  Forearm has classic hairline crack ahead of receiver.  Classic long recoil action works fine.  Nice, clean early example!
