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

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
