The new Browning A5 12-gauge shotgun, featuring Realtree MAX-7 camo, builds on the legacy of reliability and performance earned by its namesake.
The new A5’s humpback-shaped receiver may bring back fond memories, but make no mistake, this isn’t your grandpa’s shotgun. The Kinematic Drive System makes the A5 a reliable, fast-cycling, balanced and soft-shooting recoil-operated autoloader. You can also count on the A5 to cycle a wide range of field loads. Browning is so confident in the A5, it stands behind it with a 100,000-round or five-year guarantee that this shotgun will work no matter what.
