It might be an older Remington - pre-Browning. They looked the same. I have never seen a left handed A5 but that does not mean they never made them.

I worked in the Browning Arms Company gunsmithing shop for several years, never saw a left handed A5. That's not to say they were never made, Browning made a lot of unusual guns for the european market that were never meant for export to the U.S.. Several very interesting guns were brought back by hunters, tourists and others. One of the most interesting guns that I worked on was a Safari Grade in .404 Jeffrey.

It would make sense that they made them for Europe since they drive on the other side of the road.

I would never have believed it without photos.
Even with that said, Photoshop is scary, my second wife has a photo of me Marilyn Monroe,she still thinks it's real

I had a 20 ga. Rem built on the Browning Patent that was Left Handed. That's why I swapped it to a Left Handed friend back in the 'sixties.
