    Not a Belgium but it's a magnum with a 30 inch barrel with invector chokes.Serial number has it made in 1985.I just ordered a set of synthetic for it and gonna whack some ducks with it.the action is still stiff and I don't think it's been shot much. uploadfromtaptalk1423264853198.jpg uploadfromtaptalk1423264853198.jpg

    Nice shotgun! I also just got my first A5. It's a Belgium made in 1968 according to the serial number. It was donated to the 'wall of guns' raffle by our parish priest and according to him, has had a total of 20 rounds fired. I tested it for function on Monday and it cycled the 2 3/4" duck and pheasant loads perfectly. I did the friction ring adjustment for lighter loads and it functioned with 1 1/8 oz, #8 with 2 3/4 drams, wouldn't cycle with anything lighter. I'm a happy camper! Hope you like your A5 as much as I like mine.

    Nice gun. It's good to see these guns haven't all become safe queens due to Steel Shot.
