browning a5 question
I have an A5 Standard weight in 16 Ga. Serial number is 10475 and it has the old type safety that moves forward and back in the triggerguard. I think it is pre-WWII but would appreciate someone giving me the date of manufacture. The 25 1/2" bbl is cyl bore, marked ***. This seems unusual. Comments?

To the best of my knowledge, they did not come with recoil pads. I strongly suspect that it is NOT a NIB shotgun. I would personally request a quick disassembly of the gun in the shop... it will be quickly evident whether or not it is a NIB (unfired) specimen. Be very wary if the owner balks at your request to thoroughly inspect it.

LT-12's came standard with a hard FN buttplate. It is possible that the factory added the pad...call Browning historian (Glen) to verify by serial number...but I doubt it. Mag-12's came standard with a white-line Browning recoil pad made by Parchmyer.
