Browning A5 Lightning Sweet Sixteen 16 Gauge 26" Semi-Auto Shotgun - 119015005

A modern Classic. In days not too long ago, the term sweet sixteen was synonymous with the exceptional Browning Auto-5 in 16 Gauge, cherished for its outstanding handling. This contemporary version retains a classic Browning shotgun feature - the Lightning Style stock characterized by a curved knob at the grip's base. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this semi-pistol grip design offers shooters a comfortable angle for swift, instinctive gripping and easy trigger access, making it the perfect choice for pursuing agile upland birds like pheasant, quail, and chukar. Renowned as the Gentleman's Gauge, the 16 Gauge strikes a balance, combining the weight profile of a 20 Gauge with a shot payload rivaling the 12 Gauge, all while surpassing both in patterning precision. Drawing inspiration from its esteemed predecessor, the Browning A5 16 Gauge features a lighter, more compact receiver for reduced weight and enhanced ergonomics. Utilizing total barrel dynamics and the Invector-DS choke tube system, this gauge delivers peak performance. The iconic humpback receiver design extends the sighting plane, reminiscent of the advantage that original Auto-5s were celebrated for. Experience the sweetness of the A5 sweet Sixteen firsthand as it employs the modern kinematic drive system, efficiently converting recoil energy into mechanical action for consistent and reliable operation under a variety of loads and harsh conditions. This firearm is built to excel, maintaining clean operation by directing gases away from the action.
