The Browning A5 is my favorite firearm, and I have been shooting, buying, trading them for 30 years. Today I stumbled across a version that I have never seen. At first I thought it was a custom alteration, but after a little research it appears to be legit. Can some of you A5 Gurus tell me anything you know about this Browning A5? Any and all information welcome. Also, I would really like to get a feel for its value. Apparently it is unfiired and NIB

Is that the aluminum frame version that was offered very briefly on the European market?

From the research that I have done it appears to be the alloy framed European version yes.

Wasn't the A5 Hunter made from an alloy also? The one that had that messed up kinetic drive?

Yeah, but you realize that gun is an "A5" in name only, right?
