Without a doubt, that is the finest looking A5 I have ever seen.

Wow!

Some fine scaterguns out there!!

I must admit, I am partial to the O/U's, (two shot auto's.)

My collection includes:

L to R

Stevens 311 12-gauge, (currently for sale in the classifieds)
Savage 24 .22LR over 20-gauge, My first shotgun
Winchester 25, My Grandpa Turks, poor man's model 12, bought used in the 20's
Weatherby Athena Grade III 12-gauge 26" bbl's
Red-Label 20-gauge 26" bbls.
Woodside 12-gauge 28" bbl's.

I've owned "security shotguns", but sold them all. Seems like no use for a shotgun you can't shoot at a clay pidgeon, pheasant, quail, chukar, or grouse with.

If there is any proof of a man in a hunt it is not whether he killed a deer but how he hunted it.

Super gun swings beautifully!

Cat, I'm with you on the O/U--I love the look of SxSs, but I shoot an O/U consistently better. That Woodside is a real keeper--there won't be any more of those, I think. You need an RL 28 to keep those two Rugers company!

Man, just found this thread and have drooled over every page. You guys have some beautiful shotguns. I'm partial to the A5s and early winchester doubles. Look forward to owning both one day.

Nothing like the A-5 shown above, but a buddy was letting go of his early 1950's standard Auto-5 in 16 gauge last week - I grabbed it up. Took this picture while out turkey hunting last week (wish I had gotten a turkey with it).

Nice pic, Odessa! I'm not an auto fancier, but if I were, that would be the ONE!

Thank you Mesa. That was a quick snap I took while hunting. I went out in the backyard this morning and took a little bit better picture - I sure am liking this shotgun - don't know what my buddy was thinking when he let me trade him out of it!

Found a nice example of an American Browning A-5 this past week. Another 16 gauge, this one was made by Remington under Browning contract in 1941, and is in amazingly nice shape for it's age.

What are the boxlocks? First one looks like a Daly maybe (and a whole bunch of condition to boot)... the rest all look like guild guns... love to hear more about them or see more pics.
