You will not find one of these easily.
24” RIFLE SIGHTS, Wadlock II choked, Straight rifled Hastings Barrel for a 3” Auto-5. Can include at least one choke, if not several....have to check what I have. Carson’s, Trulock, and most niche choke mfg offer chokes readily. Thicker, stiffer bore, that out-performs all my invector plus barrels. 95%+ or like new.
I’ll offer it here, before it goes to auction $400. New Hastings barrels are $475, and they haven’t made this model for years. You can have it as part of a package: older, Belgian Auto 5, 3” Mag, with synthetic stocks. Was part of a turkey/buckshot package that I hadn’t gotten around to cerakote/dipping, but works fine as is. Receiver is more brown than blue, patina, NOT rust. Just older, solid Belgian. $750, all together. Offers welcome.
Only trades considered: Auto 5 invector plus or Hastings ribbed barrels, 26” or less, possibly Browning Golds, barrels, Maxus ($ maybe my way, depending), Kimber or other light, compact 6.5/7-08/308 rifles.
Arab/Guntersville/Huntsville triangle.

No. Just synthetics. Wood stocked mag 12s don’t hang around much at my house. All other A5s, sure...but not mag 12s.

Seeing as how I have at least 3 (and often more) that I’ve hunted for the last several decades, I’m not sure what you’re saying? I just keep stalker mag 12s these days, as I tend to be extremely hard on wood stock duck guns. I’m sure I have more synthetic stocks around, jic, also.

Could be. Never noticed it, I guess. My 5# superlight A5 20ga was the most noticeable ‘thumper’ I’ve had, I guess.
Also have a Metro barrel extension that I could throw in for the right trade/$. Very quiet with subsonic buck.

FYI: My first post was mistaken on this gun.
This one is a ‘77 Japan receiver....not Belgian. Sequence on year and model codes are after the serial #, unlike the ‘77-78 guns they last pushed out of Belgium.
