While I am completely comfortable investigating bumps in the night and unknown sounds with a handgun, if it is a definite break in they are going to meet the Gentleman from Belgium or an AR :
I almost bought military version of that (long one piece factory magazine tube) that was originally used in Rhodesia or South Africa. I passed because one has to adjust recoil spring when using between heavy vs light loads. Modern semi-auto can cycle 70mm, 76mm and even 89mm shells w/o any adjustments.
The interesting part about Browning Auto-5s is that when they came into play, the United States was at the tail end of fighting the Indian Wars. They have been in use in one degree or another all the through the Vietnam war, where some SF guys used them. They have been in use all over the globe. Most Americans don't realize the extent of their martial use. Lots of use in Africa and various jungle locations.

The Tikka T3 in .308 Winchester is the Glock 19 of the rifle world.
