I read some sweet 16s where made in Belgium and manufactured in Portugal. What year/years where theses guns produced and is MANUFACTURED IN PORTUGAL stamped on them? If so, where on the gun is this?

The original Auto 5 was made in Belgium until 1975. Production was then moved to Miroku Japan until they were discontinued in 1998. The new A5 is built in Portugal
