Needing little introduction the Browning A5 is one of the most iconic shotguns ever designed. With its humpback receiver design, the Browning Auto-5 is instantly recognizable and with more than 2.7 million made, it is a common sight both in the wild and the more manicured lawns of Skeet and Trap lines
Belgium made in 1966 this gun is certified salt free and is a classic Sweet sixteen. With a vented 27 1/2" barrel with Modified choke and weighing just over 7lb, it carries like a 20 gauge but delivers more like a twelve. It's the sweetspot many wish to land in and this is your chance. Exhibiting a factory perfect bore and equally top notch factory bluing, this gun has the desired long tang and round knob configuration with fine checkering on nicely figured French walnut complimented by excellent engraving and capped with an original Browning art nouveau buttplate on a 14 1/4" stock. With a wonderful trigger breaking cleanly at 3 1/2lb, this A5 ticks all the boxes.
Considered by many to be the Goldilocks of the Auto-5 line of shotguns as everything is 'just right', it is built to be rugged and will just keep on going. This sweetheart Auto 5 is in factory original condition so will not last long. Act fast and make it yours today!
