MINTY BROWNING AUTO-5 MAGNUM 12 GAUGE, MADE in 1970
Description:
"MINTY" Browning Auto-5 Shotgun, Made in Belgium, 12 Gauge Magnum, Full Choke, 30" Vent Rib Barrel. This Auto-5 was made in 1970, making it 55 years old. It qualifies for Curio and Relic status. This nice Auto-5 has not been altered, the stock wears the original Browning Recoil pad. The light colored stock is in excellent condition, but does have some small marks from the limited use it has seen. The bluing is nearly perfect and is deep and dark and has the proper Browning luster. The bore is perfect and the action is smooth, crisp, and clean. The recoul spring has all of the original buffers and cups so that you can adjust the action to the load that you intend to shoot. These work very well with stiff magnum loads and when properly configured, with heavy 2 3/4" loads. I purchased this one locally along with a "Light Twelve" that I will list in the future.
Please view the photos carefully, they tell the story. Please contact me with questions and I will do my best to answer them.
Thanks for looking!
