Belgian-made A5 built in 1962. Excellent shape. Has 26" barrel, modified choke, 2 3/4" chamber. $700 obo. Makes a great small game gun.

nice looking shotgun. I have a friend that has his fathers old shotgun that looks just like that only its a Remington. I thought his was a Browning, but it has Remington stamped on the barrel.

I use to shoot and A5 light 12 (japan model though). I killed my first, buck, turkey, duck, and everything else with that gun. It's still one of my favorites. I don't shoot in the field that often anymore, but I did use for turkeys last year when I took a friend. These are one of the all time best shotguns every made! Any article that mentions historic shotguns from American companies, this is in the top five every time.
If you still have this thing after the new year, I'd be interested. Would love to make a set or send it to my dad to complete his set. He's got an old Sweet Sixteen that he still shoots to this day. That would be a great combo for him.

Just some info on this gun should have put in the first post:
I got it from a family friend who bought it new - I have had it for about 10 years. As much as I have tried I just can't shoot the thing. I like the gun and it works perfectly but it doesn't fit me. I had a Beretta a few years ago that was among the things I sold when I went to graduate school; it worked for me so I bought another one.
