I have a 20ga A-5, Belgium, my father bought for his Dad in 1956. My Grandfather passed in 1957 and never fired it. My Dad paid $125 for it, I have the sales receipt. In the last 64 years it’s been fired 3 times. It’s had 28 rounds through it. Obviously it looks BRAND NEW, not a blemish, not a scratch, the blueing is like the day it was purchased. BEAUTIFUL piece. I’m going to shoot some clay with it just to fire it when spring rolls around. This video was VERY HELPFUL in disassembly and cleaning. Not much cleaning required. I’m a very lucky guy.

Thanks so much for these two videos on the A5. I just picked up a 1958 Light 12, which is pretty much in factory mint condition, (except the bolt was jamming when you tried to pull it back, hence a bargain purchase) . After watching the videos twice, I followed your procedures in the videos. This gun had never been apart, as there was no screw marks and the stock was really on super tight. Following your video made it all easy, as I knew what to expect. Anyway, when the butt stock finally came off, a small part fell out of the receiver, that must have been the reason for jamming the bolt. I quickly learned from the video that it was the sear, and I also discovered that the sear spring and sear spring follower were missing. After completely disassembling, cleaning, and inspecting everything, the list of parts needed was small; sear spring & follower, recoil spring, and the action spring with both action spring end pieces. The only thing I had to figure out on my own was getting the carrier spring back in correctly, as its the older style with the pin in the receiver instead of the trigger group like in your video example. Its all back together now, it looks, feels and shoots like new. Your videos made this very easy to follow. I picked up a Wheeler screwdriver set before I started, leaving no marks on the screws when done. I was very careful, labeled everything and it would be very hard to tell it had ever been apart. Thanks again...

I received a 12-gauge Belgian-made Auto-5 yesterday that clocks as an early 1946 model based on the serial number. It was bought new by my great great granddad after WW2 and has been passed down through the family. I can tell it got its fair share of use because it is dirty as heck and most of the screws were already noticeably buggered as I was stripping it down. The magazine stop screw is so buggered I didn't have a head that could unscrew it without further damage so I just left it alone. Now I just need to clean the thing and get it back to working order. Videos like these are so helpful, even with the guesswork of differences like the singlepiece carrier, trigger guard push safety and the like that mine has.

The Remington model 11 was manufactured by Remington until 1926, after that Brownings were manufactured by FN in Belgium until Hitler invaded Belgium. Browning, then licensed Savage arms to build them from approx 1940-1947 as the model 745 (I own one of these). In 1948 Remington sold it again as the Model 11-48. Eventually after WWII, production went back th FN in Belgium.

Answering as only a fellow shooter and not a gunsmith, my experience with the Auto 5 is that you can order a refurbish kit that includes the action spring(the one in the stock) and the recoil spring(the one around the the magazine tube). Over time the constant pressure on the springs cause them to collapse a bit thus causing the mule kick. The kit also includes new friction rings. Brownell's and I think Midway USA offer the kits. If your lacking mechanical skills Art's Gun Shop in Missouri offer the kits as well as the labor. Check out Art's You tube videos. You'll be impressed.

Surprised you didn’t explain about the bronze friction ring and the bevel ring on the magazine tube, as adjusting this determines how much recoil is taken out when firing heavy loads as compared to Lt. Loads. I started shooting Auto-5’s in 1958 and watching you shoot that Browning and the tremendous recoil you were getting it is quite apparent you have it set for Lt loads. 😳 I have never seen an Auto-5 kick like yours 😳 I would take the forearm off and set it for heavy loads and change the recoil spring. ps I have my original 1958 Auto-5 that my Dad bought in Belgium in 1958 and other Browning Auto -5’s etc..& after 40yrs. I ordered another recoil spring from Browning and the old spring was compressed about 1.5-2” inches compared to the new spring. It was obvious the old spring had lost a lot of compressibility and needed replacement to reduce recoil. and every gas operated shotgun I have used have a noticeable harder recoil than my Auto-5’s

I think mine may actually be the 720 16ga. Been having trouble getting info on it in general too. Pretty sure I figured out it was from 1935?

I can’t find any description or instructions on what that vertical little rectangular “button” above the magazine disconnect lever does/is. Never had my hands on one of these before. Other than the mystery “button”, this 1928 has a problem as when attempting to load a shell underneath, the “plate” won’t depress to allow the shell to be loaded. I have no idea what that’s about.

It is not a button.

The best disassembly manual I've ever seen...thanks a lot ! I own a FN-16 built in autumn 52 (means bolts for carrier latch and magazine lock but they came off easily and one piece feeder without the fast feeding option)...but it has some trouble with the carrier latch which has been bent/ modified/filed by some idiot....little 16 just doesn't cycle as she should (loads "jump" back when loading instaed of being hold by the carrier latch) and spare parts for a 16 gauge are unavailable here in Germany (and US companies don't send to Germay whyever)...any ideas how I couls get the carrier latch back into shape so it works ?

Short of welding it up and re-shaping, not sure what else you could do. Without seeing the issue for myself I don't think I will be much good to you.

Wow you're very knowledgeable on these a5. Hopefully u could help me out. My father gave me a (Daiwa 500) 12gauge. Made by singer nikko its a clown of the a5. Im having trouble finding a butt stock, also front trigger screws and one butt stock screw. It works like a charm i just want to bring her back to life. Thanks in advance!

@Under the Gun. Hey, great video BTW, I totally enjoyed you sharing the knowledge & brief history lesson. I thought they were made in Belgium till 1952? Mine is a 1951 also came with a slug barrel.. Anyone know? I just remember hearing that during the war 2 a company in Belgium also manufactured the A-5..... Also told by a gun shop were not worth much.... Right... Hope you catch for a reply to value of a solid 9 out of 10 A-5. (Mine has more etching on the stock & engraving too)...

Hey man thanks for the video, I just purchased one at a gun show and when I bought it everything was working good the slide and action no problem. When starting to take it apart just to give it a thorough clean I got to the part where you had to punch the pin out of the receiver to get it out. My gun does not have the notch to line up the pin to punch it out so I lined it up with the other side and tried to to do that. Well now my receiver does not slide back and forth at all. and just gets stuck. Any help would be appreciated.

I just got one in sad shape. It's missing the stock, recoil spring assembly, including the tube that goes in the stock, lift spring, trigger receiver screws. It makes me wonder if it was taken apart that much, is there likely a major problem, or they just couldn't figure how to reassembled it. It seems to cycle fine, less the springs of course, and the FCG seems to function. Is it worth fixing or should I scrap it?

1. What snap shot brand do u use for this gun? __________________ 2. Help! The snap cap in the chamber kant b removed. How do u remove dat dummy shell out of the chamber? ________________ Detail: ===== I just used Tripple K clear plastic dummy round n it bounced out of the magazine n lodged at top of the loading tongue. The shell was angled upward, pointing at the chmbr but it felt like its butt rim was stuck below. I then have to open the breech by pulling the bolt hndle back, then used my fingers to bring the shell up into the chamber. But after i closed the bolt n 'fired' it, the shell got stuck in the chmbr n couldn't get it out. Kant even pull the handle back to open it. The quick-load lever on the LH side was n still is in the forward position and i kant even move dat lever either. What's going on? Pls help!!! I'v gotten the magzn cap off and try to go from there. The outer surface of the steel magz tube is also in pristine cond. Looks like i need to remove the bbl off the rcvr, then use a cleang rod to bang it out??? But still, what's the mystery of getting the dummy round stuck in the 1st place? ________________ I've compared dat Trppl K dummy round's (2nd one, they're sold in pairs) of 16Ga w Wnchstr 16Ga Super X, 2 3/4" 1,295ft/sec, 1 1/8Oz, #7.5's diam. at the top of the shells and at their base. Both the dummy n the real rounds(took 3 shell meas average) w a caliper and both had .740 at the base but the Dummy had .730 at the middle of the cylinder vs. .720 for the longer real shell. Yes, the shell's brass base for the real round makes it fatter there. So, the only diff is dat the dummy is only 2 1/2"L vs. 2 3/4"L for the real shell. 3. This Swt 16 is made by Miroku n it looks like it was never fired, stocks hv only like 3 shallow marks, n metal have no scratches or wear, it's in pristine condition. The loading tongue (or whatever u may call it) has no scratches at all, vertically or in parallel.

Great video very informative, wondering if you could tell me anything about this Remington model 11 my father had bought me 45 years ago when I was 15, I’ve done a lot of small game hunting with it and it’s in beautiful condition, I think this model was made between 1905 and 1947, it’s a sportsman 20 gauge model number 1045955 it has a pheasant engraved on one side of it and a duck or a goose engraved on the other side of it, i’m actually curious what year it is and any other info you might know , thanks

So what would happen if you took out the disconnector, put the trigger assembly back in and tried cycling a few rounds through it? Could you hold the trigger down and keep cycling rounds or would something else happen?
@UndertheGun3 жыл бұрын
It would fire one round and stop.
@spintzheid44283 жыл бұрын
Interesting, I thought the bolt would go back enough to recock the hammer and with the disconnector gone you could keep it cycling. I'm assuming with that part gone the hammer falls forward with the bolt and not enough momentum is applied to the firing pin which would leave an unfired round in the chamber correct?

my pin in the bolt will not come out. I have beat on it for hours now and will not budge, on exposed side of bolt it looks to be clear of any pinging over. I have put far more force than i care to on this browning. any suggestions?

You do not have to take it down this far to clean. Just the barrel, trigger group, and bolt is all a good cleaning needs.

Those three holes on the bottom of the receiver, your right they use very small flat-head screws, but also later years, per the 71 your working on uses roll pins also, just insert a punch and drive them out

The screws your looking at are blind pins. you drive them through into the reciever, no bullshit. If you look into the reciever through the ejection port, you'll see the holes for them to come out. They are rollpins also by the way. No disrespect, just one smith to another.
