Post by TNman » Sun Nov 01, 2020 1:35 am

Ran across a 20ga Auto 5 for sale...couldn’t resist that little svelte beauty...Belgian 1960...modified...just had it a bit over a week and it has accounted for several future squirrel mulligans...

Love the Auto 5. Have 1952 16 ga.

Yeah..it is a real beauty...the buttstock has quite a bit of fiddleback that is hard to catch in a photo...it is a joy to carry and is a real shooter...JM Browning said the Auto5 was his greatest achievement...that is saying a lot...the date code for 1960 20ga is ‘OZ’ so I call her little OZ...
