About Us: I'm an old collector downsizing most of my collection. I will do my best to describe the firearms and provide an accurate description of their condition. Many of my guns are unfired, but I do have several shooters that are in excellent condition, as well as a handful that have seen some years of use. Any questions that you have are welcome.


Description:
This is a Belgian Browning Auto 5 manufactured in the mid 1950s. It has the magazine cut-off lever like all Auto-5s had back then. I bought this one many years ago because the Auto-5s in 20 gauge were pretty scarce at the time. Now thery're even more scarce. From the  pictures you'll note that it has some marks on the underside of the fore-end next to the receiver. I'm not sure how that happened, but it may have been leaned against a hard surface in a duck blind or a duck boat. The rest of the stock and fore-end are in nice condition. A former owner put a little red paint around the front sight, most of which appears to have flaked off. There's also a spot of the same paint just below the rear sight plain. I can see how this may have been used to get a quick line of sight early in the norning.
