BROWNING AUTO 5 SWEET 16 VS STANDARD 16

Learn the difference between a Browning A5 Sweet 16 and a standard 16.

[@celestialfix]

It's very interesting to see how Browning evolved their designs over the years. Love both of those old guns.

[@andycornellier6886]

Proper recognition for my favorite shotgun. Nice

[@roblambert3521]

Thanks for the great explanation. I have a sweet 16 my dad gave me. I love that gun.

[@omahaL98]

Nice video and explanation between the two Browning 16 gauge A5's.

[@guardianminifarm8005]

Beautiful old Belgium Brownings. We were brought up hunting A5 12s & an old Rem. Mod.11 20.

[@jawbonelive3813]

awesome explanation. A5s are a favorite of mine and I love learning more about them...thank you!

[@TheWaverider09]

Thanks for the video . Well done . From Southern California .

[@RailGunZ-wf1df]

Thank you for sharing this information. I've learned a lot from your videos.

[@CobraGuy573]

Another great vid Mr. Isaacson!!!!

[@HomesteadOnThePreserve]

The people that "thumbs down" Art's videos obviously only own Glocks and ARs.

[@oldschoolron8602]

love your videos please keep it up.

Just a GREAT video, THANKS! My dad had a beautiful Sweet Sixteen that was stolen in a home burglary, as well as many other guns. We got some back but not the most valuable ones like my Winchester Model 12. Somewhere around the time I was 15 yrs or a little younger (I'm 70) I wanted to give him back his shotgun but 16 ga. guns were not to be found. At Christmas time I settled on a Belgium Light 12 with a Skeet choke, nice speckled wood, but couldn't afford it by myself and ask my mom if we could go halves on it. She agreed, probably checking with dad which gave my gift surprise away. Anyway, I now own that beautiful gun, it is a "Safe Queen", though it would be great on the skeet range I bet. I wish I could have found a Sweet Sixteen, that would have been much much better, but I did what I could at that age. I still love 16s but don't own any.....: ) Loved your video!

[@nimrod275]

Take it out on Christmas and shoot it in memory of your father, clean it and put it back in your safe. No sense in not enjoying it while your able to.

[@stevesimmons6685]

Thanks Art, Excellent!

[@chetmakowski463]

Wow! Great video!

[@rramramirez9323]

Thank you for your videos. I bought my first Browning Citori in the mid 80's. Can you do a video comparing the changes from the Superposed to the Citori to the modern 725. When I was looking for a new shotgun (my Citori still works like new) a lot of people tried to convince me to switch to a Barrerta. I tried to convince myself too but I ended up with another Browning. Keep making the videos.

[@marcturcasso5788]

The light twelve had the same weight saving milling and stock holes as well.

[@markbrussel374]

As always ve=y informative video thanks Art!

[@tterry53]

I inherited my Dad's 2 Browning 16's. 1 is a sweet 16 and the other is standard. He loved the Sweet 16. He bought it in 1949. He killed lots and lots of ducks and quail with it. As a matter of fact, I sleep on a feather bed that my Mother made with the down from those ducks.

[@pooplagoon2160]

Thank you for this video. I thought something was wrong because I had to push the button to load my Auto 5

[@deanbenson6879]

Thanks for a great video

[@jasestieglitz9761]

Great Video but I was wondering if you can interchange the stocks ?

[@smid2550]

The lightweight models also had holes drilled in the hammer.

[@rogerbeckner6419]

Nice information on the A-5 platform. Now I need to go back to my local pawn shop and possibly pick-up a 1935 A-5 Sweet Sixteen for $1500.

[@MASHQUE]

Sweet 16s did not come out until 1937. If it was made in 1935 it is a standard weight 16

[@jeffreyhall2136]

I have a new A5 Sweet Sixteen. The 1st thing you realize when you pick it up is it's weight.

[@user-rh9tz4xq5g]

The best

[@icu1585]

Matching serial numbers on all parts make it more valuable

[@dytile1603]

Just bought one from a house fire, with all original serials and has never been taken apart

[@smid2550]

Another thing too - you can convert the one piece carrier to the newer two piece.

[@richardmills8401]

My dad beat gun safety into my head when I was allowed to carry a firearm. My dad was strict on always having the safety on untill raising the gun for the shot on whatever we where hunting. If rabbit hunting the safety only came off after the rabbit was spotted running away. So I liked the safety in front of the trigger guard. I would hunt with my pointer finger protecting the trigger guard and resting on the safety. When the gun came up, the safety was pushed off and my finger slid back to the trigger for a well controlled well placed and safe shot. My dad owns 10 of these A5 browning all all gauges. I don't see a problem with the front safety if the user has been tought to control his gun. Ive gotta say one other thing to. I love the A5 browning but some of these guns for whatever reason hold the worst buckshot patterns of any shotgun ive ever seen. I shot a deer walking sideways to me at 25 yards with 3" double 00 buckshot. 3 rounds and put 1 pellet in the deeds body. I told my dad after the second deer I shot running with 3" #4 buckshot. 4 rounds 42 pellets a round and only put 5 total pellets in that deer the gun was a disaster with buckshot. He claimed it was me and not the gun. So we put a 5 gallon bucket out at 30 yards with double 00 buckshot and after the 4th round we managed to touch the bucket lol. I love these guns but like everything there are some bad with the good.

[@DaveL188]

The older you get the less you want to carry, I went to a franchi AL 48 20 ga 5.5# same action.😊

[@TheBeefSlayer]

Make a video about “Ghost 16” please!

Это мой ствол один в один. 80 лет в семье браунинг а5 класс!!!!

[@boknowstheoutdoors7646]

I just watched this video and have a couple of questions I can’t find the answer to online. I recently acquired a Remington made browning 16ga. Serial number begins with an A... first question is this gun worth anything extra or less being that it is made by Remington for browning? Second question, I have several 12 ga auto 5’s and they all have friction rings with a flat side, this one does not. There is a convex and concave side... I’m assuming the convex side is the “flat side” and should be setup as such. Thanks you for any insight into these two things

[@gunsnstuff4040]

Nothing rare or too special about an Remington 11. Plenty out there. Any straight up Browning, will be worth more than the Remington or Savage versions. There are plenty of diagrams you can view online of the friction ring set up. You’ll have a setup for heavy and light loads.

[@edwarddemedina9682]

How rare is a Remington 16 gauge a5 3 shot?

[@ronaldvergara3822]

algun video de como arreglar el pasamanos

[@Grim0954]

I just purchased a 1940 Remington Model 11 12 gauge with a 28 inch barrel with the suicide safety all within the trigger guard. Serial numbers match on receiver and barrel, 270232. (left side-WJ3 AC* FULL/right side-(REP) * R3) It's a standard no frills A grade in rough shape. Missing the magazine retaining screw and 3 locking screws. Has a broken recoil spring, and the forearm stock looks like a tank ran it over. About half way up the 28 inch barrel, there's an even bulge around the barrel and it's got a noticeable ring on the inside. It looks to uniform to be catastrophic failure. Manufactures defect? Barrel repair? If there's such a demon. Either way, I do not trust it...even cut at 18 1/2". So I need a barrel, rebuild kit, and a stock. To keep costs down I'm probably going to use a synthetic stock, this isn't going to be an award winner, just need it functional and reliable.

[@jeffmckinsey8769]

I was told you can’t shoot steel out of my standard 16 but my barrel says steel on it ??

[@josepadua8678]

What is the knob that moves back and forth for in the opposite side of the charging handle?

[@chrisstrefling6193]

I think you are referring to the magazine cut off switch.

[@robby4536]

How do I make a light 12 Barrel fit on a magnum receiver

[@trevorn9381]

You can't. Why would you want to?

[@dennissink6483]

I have a sweet16 I like year builded serel number 4570

[@nicholasmapes]

When did the sweet 16 go to a gold plate trigger? I have a sweet 16 with the cross bolt safety but not a gold trigger

[@Sebastian_Hahn]

The internals could've been replaced at some point; or the plating could be worn off. I have a sweet 16 that has very little gold left on the trigger. (I wanna try re-plating it eventually).

[@nicholasmapes]

@@Sebastian_Hahn actually did some research on these a while back, there were a few years where the Belgium made guns didn't have gold triggers. I know its never been apart, and it hasn't been used enough for the plate to wear off.

[@Sebastian_Hahn]

@@nicholasmapes neat.

[@TheBeefSlayer]

I have a 1947 I want to send you to repair and possibly restore. It has no Sweet 16 logo because of 1947 they didn’t mark them yet from what I know. It has a lightened barrel. Holes in the ring. It has reduced weight stock. It doesn’t not have the milled cut outs inside the receiver. You think I might have a “ghost 16”????? Cause I sure think so. It’s definitely a historically rare pice either way. It’s the missing link. 😊

[@MrWolf-le4nv]

What does the switch do?

[@Sebastian_Hahn]

The one on the left-front of the receiver? I didn't even realize that moved until I fully disassembled and cleaned mine (inherited), but it locks the shells in the magazine so working the action won't load a round, or firing won't reload a round.

[@jamescrump7668]

i just looked at my *Standard* A5 16. it has the milled weight saving features where u load the gun. It isn't a sweet 16.
