Just bought a 20 ga A5 Browning

Unfortunately, a 20 gauge magnum shell will not cycle through that action. So if you wanted a single shot, you could put a 20 mag barrel on there and drop one in the chamber, but it won’t eject. And yes, the 20, 28, 410 Superposed are all on the same frame.

Thanks for the information!

Earlier this year I found a very high condition A5 Sweet Sixteen that was delivered to the Browning warehouse in 1949.
I have only shot some pen raised Chucker’s with it but I really like how it handles and now know why it’s called a Sweet Sixteen.
Shortly after I purchased it I ordered this book. For About $90 it’s well worth the money.
