For Sale: Browning Auto5 “humpback” Magnum 12
Condition: Used
Browning Auto 5 Magnum Twelve, 12-gauge shotgun with 31.5”, full choke barrel, blued receiver, original wood stock. Some minor scratches on the wood and barrel.
The Browning A5 uses a long-recoil action system. In this system, after firing, both the barrel and bolt recoil together. When they move back, the spent shell is ejected, and then the bolt returns to its forward position, chambering a new shell. This mechanism gives the Auto-5 its distinctive "humpback" design, which is a result of the receiver not needing to be as large as in other semi-auto shotguns.
Notable Details:
- Speed feed is the two-piece lifter arrangement. Found on A-5's built after the early to mid-50's. The lever is a magazine cutoff, so you can unload the single shell in the chamber without the next one getting fed into the action.
- Serial Number: 75V 37XXX, indicates it was made in 1975, the barrel is marked “Made in Belgium” but the serial number indicates that it could have been made in Japan.
- Can chamber both 3” and 2-3/4” shells
- Ideal field gun for waterfowl and turkey hunting
- Not meant for shooting steel shot
- Hold 5 rounds
