Browning Oil is recommended. 7 The magazine tube on the Automatic-5 should be wiped clean of all dirt and grit, and then lubricated lightly with an oiled patch. The friction pieces should be assembled according to the loads to be used, as covered previously. 8 Reassemble barrel and wipe all exposed metal surfaces with an oiled cloth making sure to wipe gun clean of all finger marks where moisture will accumulate. 9 The barrel and action should be inspected to assure that all cleaning patches have been removed and not inadvertently left in the barrel or action. 10 The wood surfaces can also be wiped with Browning Oil or they can be polished with any quality furniture wax (but not both). DO NOT TAKE YOUR GUN'S ACTION APART. This is a specialized, finely fitted mechanism; and you may mar it for life by an attempt to remove the inner mechanism. It is unnecessary, and may do damage to the inner mechanism, to disassemble it for routine cleaning and oiling. Of course, misfortunes (such as dropping your gun in water) require appropriate attention, and in such circumstances we recommend you immediately take your gun to a competent gunsmith.

VERTICAL ADJUSTMENT -- Adjustment of the sight is controlled by the screw located on top of the sight, To RAISE the point of impact, turn the screw in a counterclockwise direction. To LOWER the point of impact, turn the screw in a clockwise direction. Vertical adjustment is also a process of trial and error. 1 Remove the barrel so that it can be cleaned from the breech end. 2 Using a shotgun cleaning rod with tip and patch large enough for a snug fit in the bore, insert the rod and patch in the breech end of the barrel and run back and forth through the the bore several times. Remove and wipe the Invector tube, tube threads and barrel threads, and lightly oil. Cleaning and Maintenance Suggestions PERIODIC OILING -- Ordinary good judgment will indicate that the metal parts of the gun should receive a light film of oil after the gun has been exposed to weather or handling. 3 Inspect the bore from both ends for leading by looking through the bore toward light. Leading will appear as dull longitudinal streaks and is usually more predominate near the muzzle and just forward of the chamber. 4 A normal amount of leading can be expected with today's high velocity loads and improved wads but this is not serious. If or when leading should become heavy, it can be removed with a brass bore brush. Make sure a choke tube is installed. Spray the bore or the bore brush with a good powder solvent, and scrub the bore until leading is removed. To prevent brass bristles from breaking off, the brush should be pushed completely through the bore before being withdrawn. Occasionally, a small drop of oil may be placed on each receiver track in which the breech bolt and barrel extension guides run during operation (See Figure 16). This will help to relieve friction and insure smooth operation. DO NOT POUR LARGE QUANTITIES OF OIL INTO THE ACTION. A LARGE EXCESS OF OIL WILL RUN BACK INTO THE WOOD OF THE STOCK AND CAUSE SOFTENING OF THE WOOD, WITH CONSEQUENTIAL LOOSENING OF THE STOCK. CAUTION: CHOKE CHOKE ABOVE AND OTHERS.

INVECTOR TUBE SELECTION MECHANISM NOT CONTAIN ANY 2 Open the action and place the "safety" in the "on safe" position. 3 Before installing a tube, check the internal choke tube threads in the muzzle, as well as the threads on the Invector choke tube to be sure they are clean. Lightly oil the threads with an oil like Browning Oil. 4 Using your fingers, screw the appropriate tube into the muzzle end of the barrel, tapered end first, notched end outward. When it becomes finger-tight, use the invector choke tube wrench to firmly seat the tube. To help you choose the correct choke tube for each hunting situation, all Browning Invector choke tubes are inscribed on the side with the patterns they produce with both lead and steel shot. Each Invector tube also has notches in the top rim of the tube. These notches are a code to allow you to determine the choke designation while the tube is installed. Rim notches refer specifically to lead shot. you will need to use the chart below to cross-reference from lead to steel, and determine the appropriate tubes for your ammunition and hunting/shooting situation. Several tubes are supplied with your Browning shotgun. The tubes listed are also available as accessories. Remember, Standard Invector and Invector-Plus tubes are not interchangeable. Invector-Plus tubes are for Browning guns with back-bored barrels, such as your new Auto-5. Older Auto-5 shotguns are Standard Invector. Before removing/installing tubes, or reading the rim SHOTGUN THE IS UNLOADED. CARRIER ALWAYS AND INSPECT lnvector Interchangeable Choke System All current Auto-5 shotguns have barrels that are threaded to accept the Browning Invector-Plus Interchangeable Choke System. You may confirm this by glancing on the right side of your barrel where the specifications are inscribed, and where the choke markings are normally located. All older Auto-5 models and the Auto-5 Buck Special are conventionally choked. The word, INVECTOR denotes that the barrel is threaded. The degree of choke tube is indicated twice on each choke tube: Inscribed on the side of the tube, and indicated with a "notch" code on the top rim of the tube. Invector Choke Tubes are made with tempered steel and are fully compatible with all FACTORY AMMUNITION (loaded in compliance with SAAMI specifications) including magnum lead and steel shot loads and rifled slug loads.

YOUR SHOT- WITH Operation of the Magazine Cut-off The magazine cut-off is located at the front end of the left side of the receiver (See Figure 12). This cut-off has the purpose of locking the shells in the magazine so that they will not feed into the chamber. This permits you quickly to change the load in the chamber of the gun without going to the trouble of unloading the whole magazine. In this way a duck load can quickly be taken out and a goose load inserted, if the need arises. To operate the magazine cut-off, merely pull the cut-off lever back (See Figure 13). This will lock the shells in the magazine. Push the cut-off lever forward when you desire to release the shells in the magazine so that they will feed automatically as the gun is fired. With the magazine cut-off in operation, the chamber empty, and the breech bolt locked in the rearward position, a shell may be instantly delivered from the magazine to the chamber by merely pushing the magazine cut-off forward.

PRESS AND THE THE BOLT BOLT REMOVED BUTTON LET THE HOME THE BARREL open, pull rearward on the operating handle until the breech bolt locks back. The gun is now ready to load. 2 Hold the gun with either right or left hand at the grip or forearm as you prefer or are accustomed. With the opposite hand, merely introduce the front end of the shell into the under side of the receiver and thrust completely forward as if loading the magazine -- then release the pressure of your thumb. When the barrel is installed, the breech bolt stops against the barrel extension, preventing any damage. With the barrel removed, however, the operating handle will forcefully strike the front edge of the ejection port causing damage to the receiver. If you wish to close the bolt with the barrel removed, be sure to hold the operating handle as you depress the bolt release button. Let the bolt ride home slowly. Unloading Your Auto-5 CAUTION: WHENEVER UNLOADING, ALWAYS BE CERTAIN THAT THE MUZZLE IS POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION AND THAT THE "SAFETY" IS "ON SAFE''. (See Figure 11.) The shell is immediately and automatically driven rearward, tripping the feed mechanism, and delivered instantly into the chamber without further manipulation. The breech bolt automatically closes during the loading operation. 3 THE GUN IS FIRING. NOW LOADED AND READY FOR The recommended way to unload the Auto-5 is simply to grasp the operating handle and cycle the action until all rounds are ejected. ALWAYS MAGAZINE ING CLEARED lNSPECT VERY FROM THE CHAMBER, ACTlON AND CAREFULLY THE GUN. AFTER UNLOAD- TO BE SURE ALL LIVE ROUNDS ARE To load the magazine, continue the same procedure, slipping shells past the carrier into the magazine until the latter is full. (Without the magazine plug, the magazine will hold 4 shells; 2 shells if the plug has been inserted.) Be sure to insert each shell completely into the magazine before releasing. The speed loading system is equally convenient for right or left-hand shooters. The instant delivery of the first shell to the chamber in one simple operation eliminates entirely the conventional process of dropping the first shell into the open receiver port and then pressing the bolt release button on the right Breech Remains Open After the Last Shot The breech of the Auto-5 remains open after the last shot has been fired. This allows convenient and fast reloading as follows: 1 Place the "safety" in the "on safe" position. 2 Drop an appropriate shell into the open breech. 3 Close the action by depressing the breechblock release button. EVEN WITH THE DO BREECH NOT OPEN AFTER SHOOTING, ASSUME YOUR You will note, however, that the mechanism must receive a certain amount of force if it is to operate automatically. The addition of any sort of weight to a barrel will have somewhat the same effect. When such factors as these are introduced, care must be given to suitable adjustment of the friction ring setting. It is desirable to utilize the setting for heavy loads as long as the mechanism functions properly. When resistance to recoil is too great to permit proper ejection, the light load setting should be used. Oil on the Magazine tube Whether the friction ring is set for heavy loads or light loads, the amount and kind of oil on the magazine tube will, by varying the amount of friction, have an effect upon the amount of recoil. In general, the more oil that is put on the magazine tube (or bronze friction piece), the easier this friction piece will slide on the tube; hence, a greater degree of recoil will be obtained. Should your gun at any time commence to give ejection trouble, one or more of the following is usually the cause: 1 Insufficient oil on the magazine tube, rust, gum, or hardened grease, any of which may interfere with normal operation of the recoil spring and friction pieces. 2 The friction rings are not properly set. 3 A slight swelling of the forearm (sometimes unavoidable under conditions of excessive exposure to moisture) may cause sufficient resistance to the barrel to affect normal operation. If a side of the barrel shows signs that it is rubbing against the forearm, the application of a fine piece of emery cloth to the interfering portion of the inside of the forearm will quickly rectify the problem. Using the Speed Loading Feature WARNING: CERTAIN WHENEVER LOADING, ALWAYS BE THAT THE MUZZLE IS POINTED IN A If you are firing a light load and the gun fails to eject, the addition of oil to the magazine tube in the region of the bronze friction piece will sufficiently increase recoil to a point satisfactory for good ejection. Oil which congeals in cold weather or deposits gummy residue may reduce recoil to the point where the gun will fail to eject, Use a high quality lubricant. Occasionally clean the magazine tube and relubricate. If temperatures of ten to thirty degrees below freezing are likely to be encountered, it is best to utilize an oil which maintains its fluidity in such temperatures. Browning Gun Oil is particularly well suited for this purpose. At all times there should be a film of oil on the magazine tube except when 12 gauge, 2 3/4" magnum loads are being used. With this load it is desirable to wipe the magazine tube practically dry. Function will not be affected and you will find these heavy loads much more comfortable to shoot. SAFE "ON BY DIRECTION SAFE". AND THAT THE SAFETY BEING IS STRUCK KEEP YOUR HAND AWAY WHEN FROM THE EJECTION PORT THE CLOSES. TO A VOID BREECH BOLT, THE ACTION The Browning Auto-5 shotgun is equipped with the speed loading system. Its design will enable you to load faster and easier. It is not necessary to press the bolt release button on the right side of the receiver during the loading process, and the same procedure is used in loading the first shell into the chamber as in loading the remaining shells into the magazine.

The safety is reversible and can be reversed from right to left-handed by a competent gunsmith. When installed, the left-handed "safety" will have the "safety" button's red warning band on the Right side of the trigger guard. DO TO NOT DEPEND INDICATE ON THE RED GUN'S COLOR ALONE STATUS. YOUR SAFETY 2 The bronze friction piece is then slipped over the magazine tube with its beveled surface up. THE GUN SHOULD NEVER BE FIRED WITHOUT BRONZE FRICTION PIECE IN PLACE.

NOTE: If steel shot loads will not function with the heavy load setting, then set friction ring adjustment for light load settings. Friction ring setting for light loads The single difference from the arrangement given for heavy loads is a change in the position of the friction ring. For light loads this friction ring is taken off and placed at the extreme rear end of the magazine tube, between the rear end of the recoil spring and the receiver with the beveled edge turned toward the receiver.

INSTRUCTIONS IN SEPARATE A great deal of attention has gone into the design of the recoil absorbing mechanism to minimize the recoil of the magnum loads as much as possible. It is a mechanism specially arranged for those loads. As shown, it consists of a bronze friction piece and one coned friction ring (See Figure 9). 1 with the butt of the stock down and the magazine tube pointing up, one friction ring is placed on top of the spring with the beveled surface UP. REARWARD THE BARREL If the gun is fired with either the friction ring or the recoil spring in direct contact with the barrel guide ring, the rear surface of the barrel guide ring will be deformed. Removal of the bronze friction piece permits an excess of recoil. You will be getting unnecessary recoil, thereby pounding the mechanism of your gun severely. 4 AFTER FROM IN BOLT THE YOUR BARREL GUN, HAS BEEN THE REMOVED BREECH BOLT THE LEAVE BUTTON. THE OPEN POSITION. RELEASE DO NOT PRESS If the breechbolt is released forward with the barrel removed, the operating handle will be driven against the front edge of the receiver ejection port, which will cause damage to the receiver. The semicircular wood ridge at the rear of the forearm should fit into the matching groove in the front of the receiver (See Figure 6). Disassembly Procedures CHECK CERTAIN AND YOUR THE GUN CAREFULLY FEED NO TO BE CHAMBER, CONTAIN MECHANISM 5 For the convenience in casing and carrying the dismantled gun, return the forearm to its position on the magazine tube and screw on the magazine cap. You will then have two neat units. One is the barrel; the other is the action with forearm and stock. Operation of the "Safety" The cross bolt "safety" prevents the trigger from being pulled when in the "on safe" position. The safety is located conveniently at the rear of the trigger guard and has an enlarged head on the right side designed to be conspicuous "ON SAFE", hence, a shooter is not likely to lose a shot through failure to notice that his "safety" is on. The enlarged head also aids you to move the safety to FIRE position with unusual speed and convenience. In the "off safe" Or "fire" position a red warning band is visible on the safety button on the left side of the trigger guard. To place the gun "ON SAFE," press the "safety" button to the right. To move the "safety" to the FIRE position, press the "safety" to the left (See figures 7 & 8). MAGAZINE SHELLS. 1 Draw the breech bolt rearward and lock it open. 2 Rest the butt end of the stock on any convenient rigid surface. With the left hand apply rearward pressure to the barrel, then unscrew the magazine cap with the right hand. While maintaining rearward pressure on the barrel, remove the forearm from the magazine tube. 3 While continuing to hold the barrel firmly, gradually release pressure and slide the barrel directly forward off the magazine tube. DO NOT SUDDENly RELEASE PRESSURE AGAlNST THE BARREL. If this is done, the strong recoil spring may throw the barrel off the gun. out the plug, the end of which you will see in the exposed end of the magazine tube. The gun will then be a 5 shot semi-automatic.(See Figure 2.) If at some future time you wish to limit your gun to three shots again, take the adaptor and pass the shaft through the hole in the magazine spring retainer which is exposed in the end of the magazine tube. With this shaft projecting into the magazine, press or lightly tap the head of the adaptor to force the magazine spring retainer downward until the head of the plug is on a level with the end of the magazine tube if it is not already so. Then proceed with assembly as follows: 3 Check the friction ring setting to be sure the friction rings are set according to the loads you plan to shoot. See page 9 for proper setting of friction rings. Place the barrel guide ring around the magazine tube and force the barrel rearward against the resistance of the recoil spring while guiding the barrel extension into the receiver. Note the guides on the barrel extension which must be placed in the receiver tracks (See Figure 3). 4 With the left hand maintaining rearward pressure against the barrel to the point where the front end of the barrel extension is even with or slightly inside of the front end of the receiver (See Figure 4), replace the forearm over the magazine tube and screw the magazine cap on tightly. Be careful not to squeeze the rearward end of the forearm. Squeezing too hard may cause it to crack (See Figure 5).

However, Browning can assume no responsibility for incidents which occur through the use of cartridges of nonstandard dimension or those developing pressures in excess of standards established by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturer's Institute (SAAMI). General Operating Procedures The Browning Automatic-5 shotgun is a recoil operated, semi-automatic shotgun. The breech bolt locks into the barrel. Upon firing, recoil causes the barrel and breech bolt to travel rearward, recocking the hammer. After full rearward Initial Cleaning Various exposed metal parts of your new Auto-5 have been coated with a rust preventative compound for protection. Before assembling your Auto-5, clean the antirust compound from the barrel, receiver, magazine tube and the action-chamber areas. Browning Oil is ideal for removing this compound and for giving your new gun its first lubrication. However, any quality gun oil may be used.

Perform the following steps to assemble your Auto-5 and make it ready for shooting. travel, the breech bolt unlocks from the barrel, The barrel begins forward movement an instant before the breech bolt begins forward travel. This split second delay lets the barrel "get ahead" of the breech bolt, which is holding the spent shell with dual extractors. This accomplishes extraction. Ejection occurs when the ejector, located in the barrel extension, strikes the rim of the spent shell during forward travel of the barrel. During forward travel of the bolt, a fresh round from the magazine is fed into the chamber. After the last shell has been fired, the breech bolt locks open, instead of returning fully home. This facilitates speedy, convenient reloading. This operation is semi-automatic; the trigger must be released and pulled to fire each successive shot. 1 Pull rearward on the operating handle and draw the breech bolt rearward where it will remain locked back. Rest the butt end of the stock firmly on any convenient rigid surface. With the left hand, pull rearward on the forearm to counteract the forward thrust of the recoil spring around the magazine tube. with the right hand unscrew the magazine cap.

GUN HANDLING AROUND YOU AND OTHER OBSTACLES. Refer to page 13 of this instruction book for instructions on the unloading of your shotgun. Never place your shotgun on or against a fence, tree, car, or other similar object. 15 WEAR EYE AND EAR PROTECTION WHEN Don't be timid when it comes to gun safety. If you observe other shooters violating any of these safety precautions, politely suggest safer handling practices. 19 BE CERTAIN YOUR SHOTGUN IS UNLOADED Unprotected, repeated exposure to gunfire can cause hearing damage. Wear ear protectors (shooting ear plugs or muffs) to guard against such damage. Wear shooting glasses to protect your eyes from flying particles. Always keep a safe distance between the muzzle of your firearm and any persons nearby, as muzzle blast, debris and ejecting shells could inflict serious injury. Also, wear eye protection when disassembling and cleaning your shotgun to prevent the possibility of springs, spring-tensioned SHOOTING. Because so many gun accidents occur when a firearm is being cleaned, special and extreme care should be taken to be sure your gun is unloaded before disassembly, cleaning and reassembly. Keep ammunition away from the cleaning location. Never test the mechanical function of any firearm with live ammunition. BEFORE CLEANING.

Mud, snow, and an infinite variety of other objects may inadvertently lodge in a barrel bore. It takes only one small obstruction to cause dangerously increased pressures that can ruin (swell or rupture) the finest shotgun barrels. BEFORE CHECKING BE FOR A BARREL NO LIVE THAT THE ARE Browning assumes no liability for incidents which occur through the use of cartridges of nonstandard dimensions which develop pressures in excess of commercially available ammunition which has been loaded in accordance with standards established by the Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers Institute (SAAMI).

After assuring yourself that the shotgun is Completely empty, again, open the breechblock, locking it to the rear, and look through the barrel to be sure it is clear of any obstruction. If an obstruction is seen, no matter how small it may be, clean the bore If you detect an off sound or light recoil when a shell is fired, DO NOT LOAD ANOTHER SHELL INTO THE CHAMBER. Open the action and remove all shells from the magazine, chamber and action areas. With the action open, glance down the barrel to make sure that a wad or other obstruction does not remain in the barrel. If there is an obstruction, completely clear the barrel before loading and firing again. Failure to follow these instructions can cause extensive damage to with a cleaning rod and patch as described in "Cleaning and Maintenance Suggestions" on page 17. Before the first firing, clean the bore with a cleaning rod and patch, and wipe away any anti-rust compounds in the action/ chamber areas. 7 ALWAYS UNLOAD YOUR SHOTGUN EXPLAINING SHOTGUN. WHEN THE NOT IN USE. REFER TO PAGE 13 OF THIS INSTRUCTION UNLOADING BOOKLET OF YOUR your gun and possible serious injury to yourself and others. 9 DO NOT PUT A 16 OR A 20 GAUGE SHELL IN A 12 GAUGE GUN. Store all shells of different gauges in completely separate and well-marked containers. Do not store shells of mixed gauges in a common container or in your pockets. EXAMINE GUN. EVERY SHELL YOU PUT IN YOUR As a safety precaution, it is preferable to disassemble your gun for storage. Store your gun and ammunition separately--well beyond the reach of children. Take all safeguards to ensure your shotgun does not become available to untrained, inexperienced or unwelcome hands. 8 USE THE PROPER AMMUNITION. The barrel and action of this shotgun have been made with substantial safety margins over the pressures developed by established American commercial loads. Nevertheless, The most certain way to bulge or rupture a barrel is to drop a 20 gauge shell into a 12 gauge chamber. The 20 gauge shell, unfortunately, will not fall completely through the barrel; its rim is caught by the front of a 12 gauge chamber. Your gun will misfire (with the chamber appearing to be empty). It is then possible to load a 12 gauge shell behind the 20 gauge shell. If the 12 gauge shell is then fired, the result will be a so-called "12-20 burst" which can cause extensive damage to your gun and possible serious injury to you. You Are Responsible For Firearms Safety As a gun owner, you accept a set of demanding responsibilities. How seriously you take these responsibilities can be the difference between life and death. There is no excuse for careless or abusive handling of any firearm. At all times handle your shotgun and any other firearm with intense respect for its power and potential danger.
