Description
The Browning Auto-5, often called the A5, is a renowned 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun celebrated for its distinctive "humpback" receiver design and reliable performance. Manufactured in 1960 in Belgium, this model features a 31.5-inch barrel with a full choke, making it well-suited for long-range shooting applications such as waterfowl hunting. The extended barrel length contributes to a balanced swing and improved shot patterns at extended distances.
The shotgun's construction showcases the craftsmanship typical of Belgian-made firearms from this era. The receiver and barrel show some honest wear on the blued finish. The walnut stock and forearm have fine checkering, providing aesthetic appeal and a secure grip. The round knob pistol grip design adds to the classic appearance and handling comfort.
Despite its age, this 1960 Browning Auto-5 remains a functional and reliable firearm, reflecting the durability and engineering excellence of its time. Its historical significance and performance continue to make it a prized possession for collectors and shooting enthusiasts.
