Just bought a 20 ga A5 Browning

[Spin Drift]

I was gifted an A5 20ga by my father in law who was gifted it by his father in law (my Pretty Wife's Grandfather.) He got it in a poker game in the 60's. He was a liquor salesman on the Chicago South side during that time. It was a high stakes game and his opponent had run out of money and thought very highly of his full house kings over sixes in 5 card draw and put the A5 on the table. My Pretty Wife's Grandfather laid down four 9's and the gun was his.

As to rate of fire and handling of the 20, I once hit a single dove three times in a row until the last shot threw said bird over a tree. Tough to do that with a Parker.

Rereading this thread last week rekindled my passion for the humpbacks! Took my A-5 twenty out for a round of SC on Sunday and got lots of comments like, 'OMG, a REAL Browning!". and "Can you still get parts for them?". I said "Yeah, kind of like finding parts for an M-1!" Used my MOD barrel; next time I'll go for SK and have some real fun!
