Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen: The Modern Classic
In the world of shotguns, few names evoke a sense of heritage and innovation like Browning. Enter the Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen—a masterwork that pays homage to its iconic predecessor while embracing modern advancements. This is not your grandfather's Auto-5; this is an evolution designed for today's discerning shooter.
A Refined Legacy
The heart of the A5 Sweet Sixteen lies in its 16-gauge design, renowned as the "Gentleman’s Gauge." It offers a unique balance—lighter than a 12 gauge yet with comparable shot payload and superior patterning. Built on a smaller, lighter receiver, it provides reduced weight without sacrificing performance or feel.
Engineering Excellence
The hallmark humpback-shaped receiver extends the sighting plane, offering enhanced target acquisition reminiscent of early Auto-5 models. Yet beneath this nostalgic exterior beats the heart of innovation—the Kinematic Drive System. Unlike traditional gas-operated actions that accumulate debris within their mechanisms, this short recoil-operated system harnesses kinetic energy efficiently and cleanly ejects gases away from critical components.
Features That Define Performance
- Kinematic Drive: Converts recoil into mechanical motion for consistent operation across varied loads and conditions.
- Total Barrel Dynamics: With Back-Bored Technology and Vector Pro Lengthened Forcing Cone for optimal patterns.
- Invector-DS Choke Tube System: Includes three chokes to maximize versatility in hunting or sporting clays.
- Sight Advantage: Fiber-optic front sight paired with an ivory mid-bead ensures precise aiming capabilities.
Aesthetic & Ergonomic Design
This shotgun doesn't just perform well—it feels right too. Featuring a gloss finish Turkish walnut stock with vertical grip that's shim-adjustable for length of pull, cast, and drop; alongside ergonomic elements such as Inflex II Recoil Pad which mitigates felt recoil significantly enhancing comfort over long shooting sessions. The gloss black anodized receiver finish adds durability matched by practical touches like Speed Load Plus functionality ensuring quick reloads under pressure situations coupled together through TurnKey Magazine Plug allowing easy capacity adjustments when needed most.
