Description:
Here we have an extremely handsome all-original Belgian FN Browning Auto 5 semi-auto shotgun chambered in 16 gauge manufactured in 1967. This standard-weight 16 gauge Auto 5 is in amazing condition inside and out, and features a 24" smooth bore slug barrel with rifle sights. The gun is in excellent condition overall with the original factory gloss blue finish still bright and shiny. No scratches, knicks, dings, or abrasions are on the metal. All of the factory markings are clean and sharp, and the factory polished in-the-white bright bolt and shell lifter are still mirror-bright and free from any stains or pitting. The receiver shows no finish wear on the lower edges from being carried in the normal spot, nor does the trigger or triggerguard show any finish wear whatsoever. The exterior factory gloss blue finish of the barrel and the forearm cap are both in superb condition. The bore of the 24" (23.5")barrel is mirror-bright and perfect, free from any pitting, dents, bulges, or damage of any kind. The original factory stock set on this 1967 Auto 5 is in excellent condition, and is a very handsome dark red-brown in color. Both the forearm and buttstock are free from any cracks or repairs, and the original checkering on both pieces is still crisp and clean without any visible damage. The stock and forend are flawless with no nicks, scratches, dings or abradions.. The original factory FN/Browning buttplate is still in-place on the buttstock, and it is in excellent condition with no cracks, repairs, or chips. As mentioned earlier, this Browning is just as clean on the inside as it is on the exterior. The internals are all in like-new condition with no visible wear whatsoever. With the bolt locked back you can see how the interior of the receiver is essentially spotless and the face of the bolt is pristine. The action is slick and stout; when the bolt is released it slams into battery perfectly with the barrel. All of the controls are in perfect working order, including the safety and magazine cut-off. There is no question that it has had a VERY easy life. If you have been looking for a 16 gauge Belgian Browning Auto 5 for your collection that will work as both a shooter and good long-term investment, this 1967 production gun would be a superb choice. Tthis standard-weight 16 gauge Auto 5 could be carried with a great deal of pride into any hunting camp/club in the world. They dont get much nicer than this, and finding a better one with a 24" inch slug barrel would be extremely difficult. I am listing this for a friend whose husband has passed. This gun was extremely well maintained and handled and its hard to even see any handling wear.
