I am not at all positive, but I think I remember that these Browning Automatic Shotguns was made in China by 1972. My dad bought a Browning Sweet Sixteen in 1969 as a Christmas present for me and I think he said that it was one of the last ones made in Belgium. How could I check this fact??
My dad handed me down his 1956 Belgium browning light twelve. I’m 64 and dad bought it the year I was born. It’s all original with a pollychoke on it. Skeet bird rabbit deer we have done it all with our browning and after over a thousand rounds not a single issue with it. I’m now handing it down to my 30 year old son who has been shooting and cleaning it since he was 16. Somethings in life are priceless. Be safe healthy and have a nice day 🇺🇸
The first shotgun I ever shot was a Browning A5 when I was 14 years old, back then we could still have auto-loading shotguns with a 5 shot magazine capacity here in the UK. I watch you pick up a handful of 12 gauge slugs or 9 x 19 pistol rounds and I wonder if you realise that if I did the same thing here I would be going to prison! You must fight every step of the way to preserve your freedom to own firearms, if you waiver in the slightest then one day you will end up like us.
You're more than welcome to cross the pond & start a new life here in the States (after this rediculous quarentune is over). Just be warey of our anti-gun, socialist States. We all know what they are.
Imagration of non cristians is what's destroyed the UK France and most of the euro countries. And now you're not even allowed to protect yourself. So sad. The liberals hear are trying with the same methods. Cheat steal and lie. There going to have a hard time taking guns away hear because america is armed to the teeth and we ain't going for gun control. But imagration of non cristians is a huge problem for our country. We can't even pray at a football game without some hellbound atheist screaming racism. It's truly sad to see what the world is coming to. And it's going to get worse before it gets better!
Every time I see an old “hump back” Browning, reminds me of my Grandfather. He had an old Ranger, sold by Sears and Roebuck. This was in the 70’s and the gun was old even then. Had to be made in the late 30’ or early 40’s. He always told me that he paid $35 for the shotgun. It had an old screw down “poly choke” on it, kicked like a mule (or at least at 11-12 years old) I thought it did. He was incredibly talented with that firearm. Grew up in a time where one shot was one kill. I’m talking about for something to eat. We go shoot 300 rounds at the range and worry about when the next order of ammo will arrive. Lol. Great memories. Thanks Hickok
Testament to the power of a 12 gauge slug: one of your first five shots you shot the ram. The slug hit the ram in the front foot and it took it right down! As you know the lower you hit on the target the more power it takes to drop it. Impressive.
Years ago I had a nice Browning A5 and let it go. A friend called me said his dad passed and while he was cleaning out the house he found a shotgun and wanted me to get rid of it. My friend had a record and could not own a firearm. What was funny to us is that we knew his dad did not like pretty much any weapon so the shotgun was a huge surprise to us. His dad was dentist and we think he got it in lieu of payment for work done. For his generation this was not uncommon. When I went to pick it up, at that time, I knew little to nothing about shotguns except how to use one. So I had to first find out what this shotgun was and what it was worth to get my friend the most I could. While doing the research on it I was able to determine it was a excellent condition 1954 Browning A5 semi-automatic light weight. The price was all over the place so I took it to a few dealers I knew that would give me an honest value knowing I had no plans of selling to a dealer. After talking to several, they all agreed that not only was in in excellent condition but it had never been fired. I was told that I should list it in an online auction because I would get the best price versus trying to sell it locally or at a show because Browning collectors are very competitive online but jerks in person. They will bid to win but at a show they will beat you up over the price. Never was a truer statement made. I did some local shows and every clown that came to my table tried telling me what was wrong, the condition issues, and that it was only worth $600. My friend would have been good with that but only because he offered to sell it to me for much, much less but I wanted to help him out and get the best price for him. I finally sold it online for $1300. I look back now and wish I would have paid him his asking price and kept it. I probably would not have ever fired it because it looked so beautiful for being 60 years old (at that time) and looked so good hanging on my wall with the rest of my collection.
I’ve got my grandfathers Stevens 77 16ga. Hands down my favorite rabbit gun. I’ve also got my own A5 Sweet 16. The 16ga always seems to be forgotten but probably my go to for everything but turkey
One of the finest auto loading shotguns I have ever shot! I inherited mine from Dad. A 16ga (pre 57) that Dad used in the 50s as a plank owner of Ducks Unlimited. I’ve taught many young shooters skeet with this gun and I can regularly get 100 clays out of 100 with it. I’ve always said that with this gun a blind man could shoot skeet and do well! I also have the original manufacturer’s manual with it. Pure joy to shoot in 16ga with a light recoil and very effective.
Mike Smith my brother and I are in our 60s He has a 45 year old Rem 1100 and I have a 65yr old Belgium browning light 12. The browning recoils harder but after thousands of rounds we both agree they are equally remarkably made firearms. I can’t speak for brownings made after mine. Have a nice day 🇺🇸
👍 Thumbs up for video #30 in the April series. 30 videos in 30 days! Thanks so much Hickok45 and John! It’s been a pleasure watching all of the videos this month. Thanks for providing us with entertainment every day while many of us are cooped up at home. That Auto 5 is a beauty! The European walnut Browning used in those days has such a gorgeous color. Thanks again!
This was my father's favorite shotgun. He's gone but his Belgian A5 lives on with me. It has quite a few "character marks" because it was his go to tool of choice for everything from deer to doves.
Mr Hickok45 and John, 4-30-2020 Thank you very much for posting one (or two!) videos every day during this past month. Now I look forward to prospecting for previously posted videos from years past that I have missed. Sincerely, Savage22bolt
Beautiful shotgun!! But I'm kind of sad. It's April 30! I have enjoyed all the videos in April. Thank you so much for helping us deal with this "thing." Mr Hickok 45 Sir and John thank you for all your hard work stay safe!!
My grandfather had one that I remember as a kid, he passed in 1955, he only had one arm, he lost the other catching a train and almost died. So this was his gun of choice for deer hunting with one arm.
I got the A-5 Belgium Browning for my 21st birthday 45 years ago. I no longer hunt, but when I take it to the range my slug groups at 100 yards are all in the zone.
Started quail with a single shot Revelation 20 gauge at the age of 10. By 13 my Dad gave me a Belgian made 20 gauge Browning auto loader, with vent rib barrel. He had 3 of them. Beautiful wood and steel
You got a Liege barrel. My cousin worked at the factory in Liege, Belgium. He is retired now. Replace the bead sight incase you ever want to sell it. Brings more value to the shotgun for a Browning made in Belgium. Thanks for the video.
From the age of 15 I carried mine on the bus and into a Massachusetts High School just 25 miles west of Boston every school day during the bird and deer hunting season. The ex-Green Beret principle had carried one in Vietnam and would stand it up in the corner of his office behind his desk...
I have the "poor man's A-5", the Savage 720, which is a wonderful gun in it's own right. It is slick handling and fun to shoot. Also, the wood is super nice.
Sir that is my personal favorite slug gun mine sports a receiver sight, and really is a true classic, course it should be as its another John Browning design. I need to use mine to put down a big wild boar in the future and my favorite slug is the RWS BRENNEKE Classic 1 1/8 ounce 2.75". Remember the old Herters catalogues back in the 60's. I recall an advertisement in that yearly catalogue as a kid that THE BRENNEKE SLUG WAS PROVEN IN AFRICA AGAINST DANGEROUS GAME INCLUDING ELEPHANT. Well as 12 year old that intrigued me and of course today I realize it would lack the requisite penetration.I feel this could be effective on soft skin dangerous animals like African lion and leopard, in fact often on leopard 00 or 000 buckshot is used to follow them up in heavy cover. Great review of a true American Classic autoloader.
Thanks for Recommending The Balistal for my guns it makes them look Great! As well as Function Great! I highly recommend it to Everyone. Pistol, Shotguns and even Rifles!!
Hey Hickok45, just watching your 1st video on the buck special. I just saw you trying to figure out the choke on yours. Next to "special steel" you will see * full, *- improved modified, * * modified, * *-improved cylinder, * *s- skeet, * * * cylinder
It is a light weight shot gun to hunt anything when you put a buck special barrel on it then you use it to shoot slugs. You change the barrel for what ever you want to hunt. Been shooting one for60 years
Howdy Hickok, I lost my Father in 1989 & inherited his 1956 Browning Light Twelve ( that hasn’t been shot, ‘that I know of’ since @ 1980) anyhow, no sites on this shotgun except a gold bend on the end of the barrel. Was admiring the finish on yours as my dads has some pitting throughout, I am 67 years old, would like to get it cleaned up and refinished but have been told it’s worth more as is than having clean up done!! I’ll never sell this, May never even shoot it again in my lifetime, but will hand it down. Would appreciate your input on what I should/shouldn’t do
sweet gun browning site said these brownings are still made in usa ..Salt Lake City, Utah Buck Mark .22 caliber pistol Buck Mark .22 caliber rifle 1911-22 pistol 1911-380 pistol
One of the many best of guns by John Browning. A beautiful firearm for sure, for some reason personally I like the sloped end of the receiver on these models. You know what Mr Greg, how about putting a bigfoot silhouette down range?
I have a model 11 that has a front sight but no rear sight ,short barrel improved cylinder..love it but difficult to keep slugs accurate at 40yards with no rear, any solutions?
I have the Remington version... the model 11... what a hoot that gun is. I set it up for high base loads since I don't do clays. mine was made in the 1940's I also have a Remington model 81 made in the late 40's in 300 Savage... they look the same LOL
Hickok45 Just to let you know UA-cam singled out this Video and wanted me to rate what I thought of the Video.I checked Informative and Entertaining and clicked Submit.Kind of Crazy I had not had to rate a Video in a long time.It was a great video just passing this along to you.I watch a lot of your Videos maybe thats why it was chosen.Keep the Videos coming!!
I read where these guns have choke rings on the recoil springs that could be changed around depending on whether shooting slugs or birdshot. Have you heard of that?
Semi-autos are currently slated to be banned in Canada through a special Order-in-Council method, following the abhorrent acts of someone who was specifically banned from owning firearms. Specifically, AR-platforms and "similar" are targeted even though that isn't what he used. This, even though the government's own poll shows that some 90% oppose such measures.
superbe vidéo sur l'auto 5 bravo à vous il ne manque plus qu'une vidéo sur les différents modèle par année queues de détentes différentes système de chargement etc... très bonne vidéo merci de "France"
My grandpa had one of these I just found and decided to try out. For a 16 gauge it kicks worse than any 12 gauge I’ve ever shot. Absolutely needs a butt pad.
My dad had his grandfather's 12 gauge Remington shotgun. Steel butt plate. I got to shoot it rabbit and squirrel hunting at 11 years old. I shot at least 10 times that day. My neck was stiff for a day and my dad noticed. Asked if I wanted go shooting again. I said sure, can we go tomorrow.
I bought my A5 from my uncle in 1978. I have been very curious as to how old it is. You pointed at the serial number and said it was made in 72, but I didn't see what part of it determined the age. How do you get the manufacturer's data.
My auto 5 has an additional lever near the loading port that will stop it from feeding the next shell. Didn't see it on yours? Never mind. Rewatched and saw it on the left side.

I swear you can see the bullets a lot of the time when there's a zoomed in shot
Yes you can, specially when it's a 45 round at the gong.
@Booty when its a slug but the longer range shots you can see some of the slower rifles and handguns
Saw it at the gong
The family still has a A-5 , I saved it from a bad day bird blind fire , reached right in a grabbed it , blind was a loss but got the gun !

I'm pretty good thanks! How you doing?
Is it just me, or is the video quality of this review very clear? The up close shots of the checkering and receiver are very crisp.
I could actually see the slug hit the ram at 0:30.
That's what happens when you get a good camera.
What if hickock doesn't actually like guns but he just REALLY hates containers and steel plates
Now That’s a beautiful shotgun.
Mighty good camera work when we can see the slug flying through the air.
Hickok is the MR ROGER of the gun world awesome dude
It is a light weight shot gun to hunt anything when you put a buck special barrel on it then you use it to shoot slugs. You change the barrel for what ever you want to hunt. Been shooting one for60 years
THANK YOU HICKOK FOR ALL THE VIDEO'S YOU AND JOHN MADE FOR US THIS MOUNTH!!!!!!!!! I enjoy all the video's!!!!
I noticed old habits die hard when you weren’t using the auto loader feature.
I agree on the fact that because they're made in Japan, Portugal, ... that it does affect the attraction.

I read where these guns have choke rings on the recoil springs that could be changed around depending on whether shooting slugs or birdshot.
Have you heard of that?
Browning humpback is very high on my bucket list of guns to own.

Victor Hernandez Under the covers and without permission.
I found one at a pawn shop under 200$
Where? When? What gauge? What condition?

Semi-autos are currently slated to be banned in Canada through a special Order-in-Council method, following the abhorrent acts of someone who was specifically banned from owning firearms.
Specifically, AR-platforms and "similar" are targeted even though that isn't what he used. This, even though the government's own poll shows that some 90% oppose such measures.
That gold trigger sure is nice 👍
Something about a slug gun that just feels so right.
superbe vidéo sur l'auto 5 bravo à vous il ne manque plus qu'une vidéo sur les différents modèle par année queues de détentes différentes système de chargement etc... très bonne vidéo merci de "France"
Remington M 11 is basically the same thing. I own an M11 and it shoots great in 12 gage.
His skill is always the best
My grandpa had one of these I just found and decided to try out. For a 16 gauge it kicks worse than any 12 gauge I’ve ever shot. Absolutely needs a butt pad.
My dad had his grandfather's 12 gauge Remington shotgun. Steel butt plate. I got to shoot it rabbit and squirrel hunting at 11 years old. I shot at least 10 times that day. My neck was stiff for a day and my dad noticed. Asked if I wanted go shooting again. I said sure, can we go tomorrow.
What a masterpiece!
How heavy is this compared to a modern equal shotgun?
I bought my A5 from my uncle in 1978. I have been very curious as to how old it is. You pointed at the serial number and said it was made in 72, but I didn't see what part of it determined the age. How do you get the manufacturer's data.
My auto 5 has an additional lever near the loading port that will stop it from feeding the next shell. Didn't see it on yours? Never mind. Rewatched and saw it on the left side.
I wish you were my neighbor, we would be doing some serious shooting. Keep up the great videos brother 👊, I'll always be a supporter.
Always liked this shotgun, but out of my budget. Last shotgun I had was a Winchester with multiple chokes.
