The Browning A5 Sweet 16 Auric is a 16-gauge autoloading shotgun built for hunters who want classic feel without excessive recoil. The 28-inch barrel and gas-operated Kinematic Drive system make it comfortable for long days in the field—whether you're chasing upland birds, working waterfowl, or practicing clay targets. The 2.75-inch chamber balances payload and shootability, and the humpback receiver profile is distinctive and functional.

This Sweet 16 comes dressed for purpose. The composite stock features vertical grip panels with textured surfaces for confident handling in wet conditions, and it's shim-adjustable for length of pull, cast, and drop—critical for fit. A pair of spacers (1/4 and 1/2 inch) are included to dial in pull length, and the Inflex II recoil pad absorbs punishment without hockey-puck harshness. The Browning AURIC Concealment system pairs a fiber-optic front sight with an ivory mid-bead, giving you fast target acquisition in low light or thick brush.

Practical details matter. Three Invector-DS choke tubes (Full, Modified, Improved Cylinder) ship with the gun, so you've got options for various distances and game without buying extras. The flush-fitting design keeps profiles clean and slings clear.
