A couple of weeks ago I’d run out of 12 gauge ammunition so I grabbed my 1961 Light Twenty. I couldn’t believe how light and handy it felt after...
I just bought this 12 gauge Final Tribute forearm on GunBroker. MGW lists it for $289, but they’re out of stock. Western Gun Parts had a buy now...
My normally reliable 1947 12 gauge started malfunctioning. Extraction was good but the shells weren’t always ejecting. I thought maybe the Fiocchi...
I saw this on Gunbroker and put in a small bid. Someone had already bid $100 so I couldn’t use my normal starting bid of $30.06. $223 didn’t meet...
I picked it up yesterday. It wasn’t in shootable condition, but it looks like it mostly needs a clean and lube. The rust is another story. [IMG]...
At a ridiculously low price, but there’s no barrel. And I don’t think a later barrel will fit. But here it is:...
I brought my 1931 Grade 2 with the short barrel and Cutts Compensator to Skeet Night a few weeks ago. Two guys complained about the noise. Since...
There’s a 1904 Auto-5 for sale on Gunbroker. It’s listed as a 1927 and isn’t going for much. I put a small bid on it but if any of you guys want it...
I bid on this shotgun before I noticed the barrel isn’t original. Glad to see I was outbid this morning. https://www.gunbroker.com/Item/889188502...

[IMG] The Auto-5 got updated in 1958, and a lot of the new parts don’t work in the older guns. Just for fun, how many of the changes can you list...
I stopped in a pawn shop last week and told the clerk I was a collector and asked to see the Auto-5 on the rack. He said it wasn’t very desirable as...
One would think that a long recoil gun like the Auto-5 would be at a disadvantage when it came to cycling speed. This article sets the story...
Someone on Shotgunworld brought up this unusual listing. I’m wondering what you guys think....
I posted this on Shotgunworld but thought we might like to discuss it here too. [IMG]
When I bought my first short-chambered Auto-5, I ordered a Short-Kit for my MEC 600 Jr. I stuck to my old 2 3/4” recipe, just reducing the shot...
I bought one a while back. Does anyone know where I can get an extended magazine for it? [IMG]
My collection of Auto-5’s is fairly representative of production from 1903 - 1965, all made in Belgium. But I do have one Miroku produced gun, the...
