Product Description

The 1954 Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen 16 Gauge – 27.5″ Vent Rib is a legendary semi-automatic shotgun. Chambered in 16 gauge, this Browning Sweet Sixteen uses John Browning’s long-recoil Auto-5 design. As a result, it cycles smoothly and offers lighter recoil than larger gauges.
Furthermore, the installed 27.5-inch ventilated rib barrel provides clear sight alignment, which makes target acquisition fast and precise. In addition, the extra 27.5-inch vent rib barrel gives shooters flexibility for hunting different game or shooting clay targets.
This 1954 Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen 16 Gauge – 27.5″ Vent Rib also showcases classic Belgian craftsmanship. Its rich blued finish and select walnut stock highlight the elegant styling of the 1950s.
Moreover, the dual barrels improve handling and allow shooters to switch quickly between loads or scenarios. Therefore, whether you are hunting upland birds or practicing at the clay range, this Browning Sweet Sixteen performs beautifully.
Overall, its smooth operation, timeless design, and historical significance make it highly desirable to both collectors and hunters.

Additional Information

Browning designed the Sweet Sixteen as a lighter, faster-handling version of the original Auto-5. Consequently, its long-recoil action cycles a wide range of 16 gauge shells with minimal effort.
In addition, the ventilated 27.5-inch rib barrels enhance sighting and accuracy. Because it was crafted in Belgium in 1954, this shotgun offers both durability and refined aesthetics.
Furthermore, the extra barrel adds versatility, allowing shooters to adapt quickly to different hunting situations or clay shooting setups.
As a result, the 1954 Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen 16 Gauge – 27.5″ Vent Rib combines historical value, reliable performance, and elegant design. This makes it one of the most sought-after semi-automatic shotguns for collectors.
