Description:
SALE PENDING  Browning, Belgium made Auto 5, 16 Ga semi-auto shotgun.
Excellent condition for being almost 70 years old.
John Browning presented his design (which he called his best achievement) to Winchester, where he had sold most of his previous designs.
When Winchester refused his terms, (no doubt one of Winchesters worst corporate decisions).
Browning went to Remington. However, the president of Remington died of a heart attack as Browning waited to offer them the gun.
This forced Browning to look overseas to produce the shotgun at Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN) of Belgium, beginning around 1902.
Thus began Brownings relationship with FN for the developement of many other firearm designs.
This A-5 was manufactured after WWII in 1952.
Minor handling marks and blueing loss at carry points, mirror bore, original horn buttplate, long tight fixed modified choke.
$75.00 shipping to your FFL or C&R. Money order preferred.
