Use of Extra Barrels
Your Auto-5 can be made suitable for multiple
shooting conditions merely by changing from
one barrel to another of different choke or
length. On all Browning Automatic-5 shotguns,
barrels of the same gauge and model are com-
pletely interchangeable and no special fitting is
required. Thus, by merely buying another bar-
rel, you have acquired the utility of another gun
at a fraction of the cost of a new gun; a duck
gun becomes a fine upland game gun, a pheas-
ant gun becomes a rifled slug deer gun.
NOTE: 3-inch Magnum 12 gauge and 3-inch
Magnum 20 gauge barrels will not fit or work in
a Light 12 gauge or a Light 20 gauge action de-
signed for 2 3/4" shells and vice versa because
the feeding and ejection mechanisms are differ-
ent.
