I just received an A-5 recoil spring that was stated to fit the Remington model 11 12 gauge with a 5 round magazine tube . The A-5 spring was 3" longer than the original model 11 spring. Will it fit? Yes; after I shorten it.
The Bersa 383a is no longer in production and parts are very hard to find. A value depends on what shape the weapon is in and if it needs repair. The 383a are made of steel, very reliable and much tougher than the newer Bersa Thunder model. Min value on a working pistol is 300 dollars. depends on how much someone is will to pay for it.

Possible, but, have a gunsmith check it out.
The recall was because of a wrong size recoil spring. the shot guns recoil would break the buttstock after about 100 rounds.
Go to Colt's website and request a ownwer's manual

To adjust a Model 59 shotgun to shoot trap loads, you may need to install a lighter recoil spring and potentially change the gas system settings for less aggressive cycling. The gas system in the Model 59 does have gas ports that can get fouled over time and would need cleaning to ensure proper function along with the recoil spring. Both the gas system and the recoil spring contribute to the cycling of the bolt when firing.
