**SOLD** Browning Auto 5 Light Twelve Semi Automatic Shotgun in 12 Gauge w/ 28" Vent-Rib Barrel
**1970 Manufactured with Japanese Barrel**
Description: **SOLD** Here we have an exceptional 1970 Mfg Browning Auto 5 Light Twelve semi-automatic shotgun chambered in 12 gauge with a Japanese barrel. 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. The name of the shotgun designates that it is an autoloader with a capacity of five rounds, four in the magazine and one in the chamber. Remington Arms and Savage Arms sold variants called the Remington Model 11 and Savage Model 720 that were nearly identical but lacked the magazine cutoff found on the 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". This particular example was made in 1970. The 28" modified choked barrel has a very bright bore and a full-length ventilated rib with a bead front sight and accepts 2 3/4" shells. The length of the pull is 14 1/4". Stock drop at the heel is 2 1/2" and at the comb is 1 3/4". The metal has a little high-edge wear and some small scrapes on the right side of the barrel (see the last photo). The stock and forend have some light handling and use marks but nothing serious. Very tasteful engraving on the receiver gives this gun just the right amount of visual appeal. This fine gun would make a great addition to any collection or a wonderful beginning for a new collection.
