The Browning A5 Sweet Sixteen 16 Gauge in Burnt Bronze Cerakote is a short-recoil semi-auto shotgun with a 26-inch barrel and a four-round magazine (Browning part no. 0119005005). It carries on the Auto-5 16 gauge tradition with a smaller, lighter receiver and the Kinematic Drive system, which harnesses recoil energy to cycle the action. A fiber-optic front sight and an ivory mid-bead help you pick up the target, and three Invector-DS flush choke tubes are included. This Browning gun is built for upland hunting and sporting clays in the 16 gauge.

Key Specifications

• The gauge is 16, the in-between bore that the A5 Sweet Sixteen is named for.
• The chamber accepts 2-3/4 inch shells, the length this A5 16 gauge is built to run.
• The barrel is 26 inches, a length that keeps the gun quick to the shoulder in the field.
• The magazine holds 4 shells of 2-3/4 inch ammunition in a tubular magazine.
• The action is a semi-automatic Kinematic Drive, a short-recoil design that sends gas out the barrel and away from the action.

• Three Invector-DS flush chokes (Full, Modified and Improved Cylinder) ship with the shotgun, along with a choke wrench.
• The sights are a fiber-optic front sight with an ivory mid-bead, which keeps the gun quick to point.
