Browning A5 Shotguns at SHOT Show's 2012 Media Day at the RangeThere's nothing wrong with bringing back a legend—especially if you plan on creating a whole new one.

Browning is releasing a new version of its classic A5 model shotgun, and it was a hit at SHOT Show's Media Day at the Range. The gun retains the A5's iconic humpback-shape, but is new and improved in all other respects. Reliable, fast-cycling, recoil-operated, the Browning A5 is poised to be a popular new buy among shotgun fans.

Check out the video below to see American Rifleman Managing Editor Aaron Carter taking a few shots with the A5.

Sorry browning, i'm just not impressed with your new a5. I don't see the quality and craftsmanship pride in it like I do in my old a5 shotguns. Nah, i'll just keep what I got.no thanks.

Destined to be another semi-humpback flop like all the rest of their recent attempts. My advice, take an original A5 12 ga. magnum and put an improved recoil reducing stock on it and get some of the weight out of it by using alloys like in the Citori guns. Calling these new guns an A5 is an insult to the greatest shotgun design ever. They won't do it because there is a quantity over quality mentality running the show. I would rather buy a used A5 or superposed over any new Browning.
