Hello all, I just bought a beautiful 1973 Browning magnum Auto 5. I am looking for another barrel, preferably a 3 inch chamber, to cut down to 18 inches. The factory barrel is 30 inches and is beautiful so I don't want to mess with it.

I just want to have a shorter barrel for playing at the range or pig hunting or something. Anyway if anyone has a 3 inch A5 barrel they're willing to part with let me know. It can be in rough shape, I'm not too picky.

Cheers

Wy not just leave as is? You'd probably find another semi-auto for as much as you'd find another A5 barrel

Well if I find another cheap a5 I'd get it. Just looking for a beater barrel to cut down and play with. I'll keep the factory one the same for duck hunting.

Cheers

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
