I can say out of all the guns I've worked on, the A5 is hands down the most complicated and elaborate system. But they are very robust and operate smoothly with little maintenance.

This series of videos helped me clean up my Dad's old 1955 Auto-5. I'm looking forward to taking him out to shoot it one more time. Thanks Brownells!

I got turned around since my spring is part of the trigger assembly. For those A5s you have to align the tip of the metal spring with the rear of the lifter assembly. It rests in a little slot, and as you install the trigger group it compresses. Not behind the lifter, but in a slot near the back of it. If the spring gets behind the lifter it won't work

Thanks for putting these together. I've slowly watched these as I took my '59 SW16 apart for the first time after becoming so gunked up the bolt wouldn't close but halfway....mostly due to the action spring nearly seized. This was I giant help in what seemed like a very daunting task. I was worried I'd screw up a valuable heirloom.

Thank you very much for this great video! I just got an Auto-5 (based on the serial number a 1953 FN production) and of course I wanted to take it apart, inspect and clean it. I got it apart just fine with a different instructions video, but that one was using a newer model with the two piece lifter (mine is the one piece) and the lifer spring attached to the trigger housing (mine is attached on the inside of the frame). The latter gave me quite a bit of headache, until I found your video and had it back together in no time.

How on Earth did John Moses Browning come up with this design, it would seem extraterrestrial for the 1890s. What year was the gun used in the video made. I have two A5s one built in 1984 that I purchashed and the other built in 1903 that was left to my father by his father, and to me by my father. They both operate flawlessly.

I purchased an *immaculate* 1898 example. Literally new in box. Came with all the documentation, packaging, instructions, even the warranty registration card. As one might imagine it was full of oxidized 1980's gun spunk and worked nicely, but not super smoothly. This process was tedious, but not at all especially difficult. The only part that made me upset or frustrated was the stock screw, because mine was held in with some manner of brown foaming 1980's Loctite that made me think there was something wrong with the screw. I ended up having to make a cradle for the gun out of 2x4 blocks lined with leather and use a custom screwdriver in a pair of vise grips to twist it most of the way out. And I'm not a limp-wristed weenie who needs to eat his wheaties, I've had warranty replacements on stocks for stripping the bedding pillars by hand with a small hex-head L wrench. This thing made me concerned. In the end my magnificent time-capsule gun came apart readily, and your videos gave me the confidence to do the maintenance and cleaning on it that such a gorgeous firearm deserves. Thanks, guys. You are a class act and a valued member of the firearms community.

I decided to clean and check out gun, it seems the operating handle is driven tight against the front edge of ejection port. also the barrel seems to be about 3/16" or 4mm to far ahead exposing the silver shoulder of barrel. Can any one help.

Need some help, I have a Springfield 745B which from my understanding is relatively the exact same firearm. Upon reassembling, once the carrier assembly is in place, the bolt wont move back in the chamber. Wondering if I must've missed something while assembling?

At 01:43 you are reinstalling the trigger plate. I am converting my older A5-16 from older trigger plate to cross sliding safety trigger plate. I have the trigger plate all assembled. I am also converting from single piece carrier to 2-piece carrier. I've installed new style locking block latch and its spring. The carrier is installed. My receiver has the older style of carrier spring with pin on inside of receiver. The trigger plate has the pin machine into the trigger plate. The two pins essentially occupy the same position in space. Hence, the trigger plate cannot be installed into the receiver as the pin in the receiver collides with the corresponding area on the new style trigger plate. My question is this: In this conversion, does it make more sense to remove the pin on the receiver wall and install the new style carrier spring onto the new style trigger plate, or should I use the pin on the receiver wall and the existing older style carrier spring, and mill out the trigger plate pin area, making the space in the new trigger plate match the equivalent space on the old style trigger plate?

Why is there a wide brass ring with the friction spring around it like you show and others that have one thin brass ring and NO friction spring? Also, what's the purpose of having vs not having the 3 shot plug? I've seen more videos without it but my grandfathers has a plastic one that seemingly just limits your magazine to fewer rounds. Thanks!

I was having some trouble with a Browning Pointer which is suppose to be an A5 copy. Some mechanism components were different and I was wondering what the easiest way was to position the carrier with the carrier spring. Thanks in advance.
@brownells7 жыл бұрын
This will require you to take this to a qualified gunsmith to properly assemble. This is built on a Browning pattern but is not a Browning manufactured shotgun and reassembly techniques vary since there were a couple of different variations of the Pointer shotgun produced.

Unfortunately, this video glosses over the process of reassembling the locking block latch and pin. I used other guides to figure out how to orient the locking block latch and the correct orientation for the pin, which is tapered and flattened on one end. Figuring out which pin end to insert was easy, but then my pin didn't want to go the last eighth inch. Maybe the pin from my ~1921 model has a certain orientation it likes after 100 years of operation? I eventually got the locking block latch pin all the way in after trying about 10 times. Here are the specific instructions from the Browning Manual on how to do this assembly step: "Insert the Locking Block Latch Spring in its hole in the Breech Block and position the Locking Block Latch, wide section aft, on the Spring. Depress the Locking Block Latch slightly with the thumb to align all holes, insert the Locking Block Latch Pin (insert end opposite the flattened end) in its hole and seat it gently with a 1/8" punch"

Unfortunately the Browning A5 recoil spring will not work with the Remington Model 11. That will need to be sourced from Ahlmans (507) 685-4243.

I am trying to take my grandfathers a5 pre war (?) and I can not get the bolt carry group out. Your video shows a notch at .25 sec. that should line up with the BCG spring retaining bin. My 20ga does not have a cut out in the reciever. How do I get this out. What does this tell you about the year or age of this gun. I use it to shoot pheasant and my wife uses it to shoot trap.

I got an A5 after my grandpa, I would never throw it away since its basically the last thing I got to remember him by. But the gun doesnt eject rounds, I have tried cleaning and lubricating it properly, but it did not help. Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong? I would love the reminder of my grandpa to actually work, not only be hidden in the safe....

Could need some new springs and if the friction rings are not properly installed the gun becomes a single shot.
