Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen: The Modern Classic
In the world of shotguns, tradition and innovation seldom meet with such elegance as in the Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen. This isn't your grandfather's Auto-5; it's a masterwork that pays homage to its heritage while forging new ground in performance and reliability.
The hallmark humpback-shaped receiver remains, offering an extended sighting plane reminiscent of its storied predecessors. Yet underneath lies the cutting-edge Kinematic Drive System—a short recoil-operated mechanism that harnesses kinetic energy for efficient cycling. This design ensures consistent operation across various loads and environmental conditions, whether you're facing heat, cold, or grime.
The 16-gauge configuration strikes a perfect balance—light enough akin to a 20 gauge but delivering payloads closer to a 12 gauge. With Total Barrel Dynamics and the Invector-DS choke tube system, this shotgun maximizes pattern efficiency for superior performance on any hunt or sporting clay course.
Features That Set It Apart:
- Kinematic Drive: Ensures flawless operation by converting recoil into mechanical action without reliance on gas systems.
- Total Barrel Dynamics: Enhances shot patterns through advanced engineering techniques like Back-Bored Technology and Vector Pro Lengthened Forcing Cone.
- Sight Advantage: The iconic humpback profile extends your view downrange for quicker target acquisition.
- Aesthetic Excellence: Gloss finish Turkish walnut stock with ergonomic vertical grip is both beautiful and functional, adjustable via shims for personalized fitment (length of pull/cast/drop).
- Anodized Receiver & Nickel Teflon Coating: Provides durability against wear while enhancing visual appeal with gloss black anodization complemented by protective coatings ensuring longevity under harsh use conditions including steel shot compatibility if required during field applications where mandated regulations apply regarding non-toxic ammunition usage requirements within designated hunting areas nationwide per federal guidelines established annually based upon migratory game bird management practices outlined therein accordingly each season respectively thereof hereinabove
