Yes. Briley or some other company will have to do the modification.
The case is fitted for the BSS line of double barrel shotguns made by Browning. It will fit other double guns as well.
This is a 16ga 2 3/4 Belgian made auto5 made in 1949. It could be a Sweet 16 which is the lightweight version or a Standard weight gun. See the link below on values. What other information would you like to know?
More information is needed. The model can't be identified by that 4 digit number. What is the action - Over/Under? are there any other letters or numbers associated with the serial number? What are the Barrel Markings? Does the barrel actually say "Browning Arms Co.?" What is the address? Please provide more info, or contact Browning

It varies by condition, length and choke. Try the barrel exchange. Most of their B2000 barrels are around $300. Keep shoping online at the gunbroker and other gun parts outlets. http://www.barrelexchange.com/
What are the other markings on the barrel? Does the serial number on the bottom of the barrel match the one on the reciever? sales@countrygunsmith.net
This is most likely a Hi Power and almost any Hi Power barrel will fit it. Barrels are available from GunPartsCorp, Barstow, Brownells, and many other sources. Some minor gunsmithing may be required or a high accuracy barrel
