What this setup is
-
16 Gauge / 2-3/4" chamber: Built for standard 16ga 2¾" shells (not 3").
-
28" length, smoothbore (not rifled): Classic bird / clay barrel length; good swing and follow-through.
-
Blued steel: Traditional finish; will need normal wipe-down/oil protection.
-
Fiber optic front sight: Quick bead acquisition for upland/clays.
-
Invector-DS choke system, interchangeable: Uses Browning Invector-DS tubes (the “DS” matters).
The most important compatibility notes
-
“Browning A-5 Post-2012” is critical
This barrel is for the modern A-5 (introduced 2012), not the vintage humpback Auto-5. They are not cross-compatible. -
Choke pattern must match exactly
-
Invector-DS ≠ Invector Plus ≠ Standard Invector
Make sure your choke tubes (and any spares you plan to use) are specifically Invector-DS.
-
-
Receiver/forend fit
-
Even within “post-2012 A-5,” confirm your model is the 16ga variant (Sweet Sixteen) and not a 12ga A-5—barrels don’t swap across gauges.
-
Quick “sanity check” before you commit
-
Your gun: Browning A-5 (post-2012) in 16ga
-
Your ammo expectation: 2¾" only
-
Your choke inventory: Invector-DS tubes/wrench
