For 2017, Browning has announced new "Wicked Wing" variants of its popular A5 and Maxus shotgun lines. The Wicked Wing line will bring a bevy of enhancements to the long-popular autoloaders.

Banded extended choke tubes and an oversize bolt release are also featured. The composite stocks and forearms are coated in Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blades camo and protected with Dura-Touch Armor Coating.

Both models will be offered in 12-gauge 3½- and 3-inch models with 26- or 28-inch barrel lengths. The A5 Wicked Wing ships with an MSRP beginning at $1,829.99, while the Maxus will start at $1,739.99.
