The Browning A5 Lightning Sweet Sixteen Semi-Auto Shotgun is built on a sleek, lightweight, humpback receiver for reduced weight and improved handling, delivering a weight more in line with 20-gauge shotguns and a shot payload more in line with a 12-gauge. The A5 features a fast-cycling, recoil-operated Kinematic Drive System that delivers reliable performance with virtually any load under all conditions. This new example includes the “Lightning Style” stock, a semi-pistol grip design noted by the rounded knob at the bottom of the grip that offers a quick, instinctive grasp and easy reach to the trigger—making it ideal for fast-flushing upland birds like pheasant, quail and chukar.
The shotgun features a gloss finish with Grade I Turkish walnut Lightning style round grip stock that is shim-adjustable for length of pull, cast, and drop, with classic 18 lines-per-inch point pattern checkering. The gloss black anodized receiver finish, fiber-optic front sight and ivory mid-bead, and three Invector-DS choke tubes work together for Total Barrel Dynamics and the Invector-DS choke tube system to extract the most performance from this revered gauge. The Inflex recoil pad drastically reduces felt recoil for faster follow-up shots and reduced fatigue.
With a 26-inch barrel and 2.75-inch chamber, this 16-gauge autoloading shotgun delivers the versatility hunters have sought for generations. Browning stands behind the A5 with a 100,000 round or five year guarantee. Ideal for hunting and sporting clays, the A5 Lightning Sweet Sixteen brings modern recoil-operated engineering and time-honored handling characteristics to the field.
