The guns you're referring to are known as "American Brownings" - a Remington-produced model of the Auto-5, except they were a Remington Model 11 with Browning logo, magazine cut-off, and different engraving.
The 12ga had a "B" SN prefix, 16ga an "A" prefix, and the 20ga a "C" prefix - the letter prefixes being the easiest way to ID them.

So, to answer your question:" Were A-5 Parts Made to Rem Mod 11 Specs in WWII?", the answer would be:

No, but Remington Mod 11's were marked to resemble Browning A-5's during the timeframe that FN was down.
