WTB WTB - Browning A5 Shotguns

[joshselleck]

Looking to buy Browning A5 Shotguns. Will look at any year or model.

 

[retired navy guy]

have a nice Winchester super X2 semi auto with extra chokes if you cannot find a browning.

I also believe that the FN SLP is based on the browning A5, can even use many browning accessories.

Not even close. If a guy is looking for Browning A5's, the only thing he might consider is a Remington 11 (or Savage 720).

The SLP is a self-loading gas operated shotgun. Design wise it is very similar to the Browning Auto 5.

The SLP has a similar speed loading ability as the Browning Auto 5 it is derived from.

Ah, I see the point. I'm sure the OP is referring to the classic, collectible A5, the first semi-auto, recoil-operated with the distinctive humpback.

Browning recently brought it back just to capitalize on the looks, but:

You may notice a family resemblance, but let’s get one thing straight, this ain’t your Grandpa’s Auto-5. In fact, the iconic humpback-shaped receiver is the only thing this new Browning autoloader shares with its legendary namesake.

Touché.

OP - hope you find one, whichever variety you’re searching for.
