I really like my 12ga A5 in camo. I might need to add a nice wood stock 16ga to the family. First on the list is a Citori though.

I got a '49 last year for the wife, what an incredible gun! It or an Ithaca 37 in 16 gauge make the perfect pheasant gun.

You can load a 20 up to a 16, or a 12 down to a 16. Store bought shells are difficult to find and expensive.
Also Ray, your link didn't work.

How much? I have a 12 A-5 new model and might be interested. I just came back from SD with limits each day. The A-5 did just fine.

When they come on the market I'll look at them through Gallery of Guns.

Wore out 2 A-5 12 ga, got a Franchi, loved it. Then I got my street sweeper Binelli. 21" barrel with tube extension. Bird eradicator. Great in brush for quail or corn for pheasant. Old boss told me if I ever get rid of you, you could probably get a job as a prison guard with that thing!

I have a very bad right shoulder and refuse to get it repaired so shooting can cause me some pain. I have the Remington 1100 in 28 Ga and really enjoy shooting it and I am very effective with it on quail.

Since 1968. The original A—5. Both still shoot, but new guns are like new golf clubs. You say the old ones are worn out so you can buy new!
