Looking at 3 "parts guns" for sale, advertised as such, all 16 Ga
2 older browning autos
A Remington Model 11
All for sale as is not guaranteed to do anything.
All have devices on the ends of the barrels
Is there anyone out there doing work on the older brownings?
How about parts for the old Remington? It need a buttstock or a very good repair job
All are less than $200
any ideas?

That device on the end is most likely a Polychoke---they were once the rage.Without looking at them I don't see where you could go wrong--They are worth that much----IMO |

Yes there are people doing work. The device could also be a Cutts Compensator or the Herter's clone for the Polychoke. AKA the "Dial a Duck"
Model 11's dont command the price in the market that the A5's do.
$200 may be ok, but the with a poly and esp if there is a pad added to the stock you wont make any money on them even if you clean them up.
