BidProwl Summary
Classic 1962 Belgian-made Browning Auto-5 Light Twelve with 25-inch ventilated rib barrel, adjustable Poly-Choke, 2-3/4-inch chamber, very good bore, fair to good blued finish with scattered surface rust and thinning, and good to very good walnut furniture. Collectors and shooters pursue these post-war Belgians for reliability and handling, while parts guys target them for hard-to-find receiver sections and trigger groups. Before bidding verify the surface rust extent on the receiver and barrel, confirm the action cycles smoothly with snap caps, and inspect the wood for hairline cracks under the finish that might indicate structural issues.
