SWEET SIXTEEN

[warzaw]

I have owned quit a few auto fives through the years never loved or held on to any of them except for the sweet sixteen. Mine is a 25 1/2 inch modified choke got it used and replaced the stocks with new factory wood. This gun shoulders points and carries like it is part of me what's up with these things ? The barrel is slim and light as is the whole gun. Not a big fan of auto fives but this 16 is a whole different animal is it just me whats up with this model ?

i have tried all gauges of auto 5 over 50 years absolutely nothing about them works for me they are heavy they point and swing like a 4x4 log every thing about them is wrong when it comes to how a shotgun should handle
they do function ok if you don't put to much oil or grease on them

New A5s aren’t gas, they are inertia operated just like a Benelli

You are correct for some reason i thought they were gas like the Gold . No matter they don't interest me in the least. The sweet 16 goes back to my teen years.
