FN Browning A5 – 12 Gauge – MFG 1954-55 – Auto 5 – Auto-5 – Vent Rib – C

This is a no reserve penny auction for an FN Browning A5 semi-automatic shotgun in 12 Gauge. Serial number- H31819. This shotgun is in good condition for its age and features a 2 3/4" chamber, 26" barrel with an excellent bore, a Prince of Wales round knob stock, vent rib, one removable full choke, and a 14 1/4" length of pull. After running a serial number lookup, we've determined that the receiver of this shotgun was manufactured between 1954-55. The barrel appears to be a newer production unit, as it was manufactured in Japan. The Browning Automatic 5, most often Auto-5 or simply A-5, is a recoil-operated semi-automatic shotgun designed by John Browning. It was the first successful semi-automatic shotgun design, and remained in production until 1998.
