I need a little help I have an A5 barrel serial number staring in the 23 thousands with a leading A. The top of the barrel says browning arms St. Louis MO it also says made in Belgium on the side but from what I understand it was could have been made by Remington . Can anyone help with this it’s got me confused

If you can find proofmarks on your barrel, I can help with the date

If that barrel is an extra, I remember seeing an A-5 in need of a barrel in the "project guns" section at Guns International.
