Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Browning Automatic 5, or Auto-5 or A-5, is a semi-automatic shotgun that uses recoil. It was designed by John Browning and was the first successful shotgun of its kind. The gun was produced until 1998. Not much changed for the guns sold by FN or Browning over the following years, but in 1958, the Light Weight was 20 ga. and Magnum 12 ga. were added to Browning's line. John Browning had considered producing a 20-ga. Auto-5 back in the 1920s, but he abandoned the idea as he believed it couldn't be produced lighter than the 16 gauge. It took more than 30 years before the idea was revived and the 20-ga. gun was added to Browning's line. The Magnum 12 gauge was the first Auto-5 shotgun available with a 3" chamber. This provided a desirable alternative for duck, goose, and turkey hunting. In 1967, Browning added the Magnum 20 gauge to its line. Only the Magnum 12 gauge was fitted with a recoil pad as standard equipment.
