Step into a golden era of upland hunting tradition with this beautiful Belgian-made Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen—a lightweight, fast-handling classic that’s just as at home in the field as it is in a fine collection. This example dates to 1954 and features a 28" barrel, a mirror-bright bore, and original FN buttplate, all in excellent condition.
Renowned for its long-recoil operation—a design pioneered by John Browning himself—the Sweet Sixteen is lighter than its 12ga sibling and prized for its balance, smooth swing, and soft recoil. The gloss-blued receiver, walnut stock with sharp checkering, and Belgian craftsmanship all come together to create a gun that’s both functional art and a pleasure to shoot.
Whether you’re a vintage shotgun enthusiast or looking for a reliable bird gun with soul, this Sweet Sixteen will not disappoint. Classic, clean, and ready for the field or the display rack.
