casts_by_fly Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 what do you want to know about the A5? I don't have one for sale, but my dad shoots one and I've worked on it. They are great, reliable guns and his gun fits me to a T. It is probably the gun that I shoot the best. My Franchi 48 is similar (hump back design, long recoil action) and I shoot it nearly as well. Very reliable, handles dirt and much well (the A5), a bit heavy to carry around all day. thanks rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P~MX Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 there is a new model Browning A5 out in USA now, they nick name it the "hump back" Not my cup of tea but then each to their own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casts_by_fly Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 PMX, do you have a link to it? The A5 was retired some years ago. They have an Abolt shotgun which is a shotgun sized version of their abolt rifle made specifically for slug hunters. I hadn't heard that the A5 was back.

casts_by_fly Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Interesting. Not sure I would call it an A5 (if I were browning) since the definition of an A5 is the humpback and long recoil system. Also no sub gauges. They took a classic bird hunting gun and left off all of the nice bird hunting gauges. And jacked the price pretty high (MSRP, expect rebates and sales).
