Answer
Jeff,
Your Auto 5 was made in 1967. The choke can be determined by what is on the barrel. You need to look at the symbols. For instance, * full choke, ** Modified, *- Improved Modified, **- Improved Cylinder, **$ Skeet, *** = Cylinder. The stamping will be on the side of the barrel. Hope this helps.
