Browning A5 Semi-Automatic Shotgun 12 Gauge 3.5" Chamber 28" Barrel 3 Round Capacity Fiber Optic Front Sight Vintage Tan Camouflage Composite Finish
An Something old, something new... Although replaced by more modern ''limb and leaf'' camo patterns, old school bubble camo does an admiral job of breaking up a hunter's outline and concealing them from the eye of game birds.
If hydrodipping technology was available during the heyday of the revered Auto-5, maybe you would have seen a shotgun similar to the one on this page — but this limited edition creation is as close as we can get to mating a classic camo with a classic shotgun. However, this retro camo, combined with the ''old school'' humpbacked design and modern technology of the Browning A5, make for a potent, ultra-reliable shotgun for the pursuit of ducks and geese.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells.
