Straight grip, round knob pistol grip, long barrels, short barrels, tight chokes or open, you could get an A-5 in just about any configuration you wanted.
Sales of FN-manufactured Browning’s were brisk and soon 16- and 20-gauge offerings joined the lineup. Browning’s long-recoil design, which sent the bolt and barrel backwards at the same time, cycled spent shells fast with minimal maintenance. Even after waterfowl hunters were limited to three shotshells, it was still more firepower than a single-shot or double gun. The Auto-5 and the U.S-made Remington Model 11 (Browning sold the design rights of the A-5 to the American gunmaker) revolutionized shotguns, because hunters could go afield with a gun that held five rounds instead of one or two. The Auto-5 Becomes Iconic The original A-5 was built into the late 1990s.
And when Browning couldn’t strike deals with Winchester or Remington to build the Auto-5, he naturally turned to FN and the “Belgian-made Browning” was born. Miroku shotgun actions are forged from a single piece of steel for absolute structural integrity.
