Browning A5 16 Gauge Barrel, 2.75-inch Chamber, Gloss

The Browning A5 Barrel (brand part no. 1118005004) is a replacement or upgrade barrel built for the Browning A5 in 16 gauge, chambered for 2.75-inch shells and finished in a gloss coating for a classic, traditional look. The A5 is Browning’s modern reissue of the original Auto-5, a semi-automatic shotgun built around Browning’s Kinematic Drive recoil-operated system, and the 16-gauge chambering carries the Sweet Sixteen name that Browning has long used for its lighter-carrying, lighter-recoiling gauge option. This barrel gives A5 owners a way to add a 16-gauge barrel option or replace an existing one without buying a second shotgun. It’s built for upland hunters and traditionalists who appreciate the 16 gauge’s lighter carry weight and softer recoil compared to a 12 gauge.
