My grandfather bought an A5 about 40 years ago and I have it now. It really is a great shotgun and I will never change it for nothig. It´s reliable, acuratte and good looking. In my 20 years of shooting it I don´t recall a single malfunction on it. It´s really the best.

I *LOVE* my A5! Theres barely any recoil, or at least the recoil there is is no problem for a big guy like me. The bolt closing is basically my favorite sound ever.
My A5 was given to me as a birthday present, and all the older guys at my trap club with their fancy berettas came over and reminiced about how much they loved their A5s and how they wish they had never gotten rid of them. (Boy, do i still want me one of those fancy berettas though
)
Its definatly a fun gun. One of my favorites that i've ever shot. My other shotgun, a savage 16 gauge pump, is fun too, but i just seem to shoot SO MUCH better with the A5.

I am with you Zen, the sound the bolt makes is priceless!!!
My dad shoots A5's and his dad before him shot A5's. So naturally when I started shooting an auto they handed me an A5. First gun was a SBS 20 ga.
Since that was pretty much the only auto I had ever shot, I thought all guns shot as nice and were as accurate, reliable and pretty as the A5's. WRONG!
Any time I shoot a friend's gun i just dont hit as well as with my A5. I haven't found one yet that I would trade either of my A5's for!!!

just for giggles, guess what type of gun won the first world championship sporting clays shoot? you have three guesses. :lol:
hint: it had a recoiling barrel, a hump, was made in belgium and did NOT jam!
