Good day,
Selling my Auto 5 as I just don't use it as much as I would like.
It is a Belgian made 1948 manufacture 26x,xxx serial number.
The forestock has the common crack along the base. However I have installed a 3d printed forestock that works well.
28 1/2" barrel, fixed full choke, 2 3/4 shells. No bulging at the end (only ever used lead shot).
Functions as it should, has dings and scratches from field use but bluing is more than 90% intact. No rust or pitting.
Missing one locking screw on the tang, however the main screw is torqued down and has not backed off.
Fitted with a Pachmyer recoil pad, but I do have a period correct FN Auto 5 buttplate to go with it. Also have a wooden dowel that you can install to limit capacity for hunting.
Looking for $650, not really interested in trades as I am trying to clear some space up. But if you have something interesting (milsurp) I may be interested. Can ship once Canada Post strike is over.
