Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Browning Automatic 5, most often Auto-5 or simply A-5, is a recoil-operated semi-automatic shotgun designed by John Browning. The Browning Auto-5 was the first mass-produced semi-automatic shotgun. Designed by John Browning in 1898 and patented in 1900, it was produced continually for almost 100 years by several makers with production ending in 1998. It features a distinctive high rear end, earning it the nickname “Humpback”.
Browning presented his design to Winchester, where he had sold his rifle designs, but they refused his terms. He then went to Remington, but the president of the company died while he was waiting to offer them the gun. Browning then took the gun to FN in Europe and was so confident of his design that his first order was for 10,000 shotguns. The design was later licensed to Remington for their Model 11 and to Savage Arms for their Models 720 and 755. During WWII, production of the Auto-5 was moved to Remington alongside the Model 11 until FN could resume production after the war.
This Browning Auto-5 (A5) is a lightweight shotgun model that was produced in 1955. It is chambered for 20 gauge 2 3/4 shells and features a receiver thats engraved with scroll designs. The shotgun also has a 25 1/2-inch ventilated rib barrel that comes with an improved cylinder choke. The walnut checkered round knob buttstock and forearm have a gloss finish and are stunning, displaying the exceptional craftsmanship that Browning is known for.
