Product Description

    The FN Auto 5 Shotgun is a 'Pre Sweet Sixteen' model and is stamped 'Acier Special', a detail that was specifically made for the European market, making it more rare in the United States. The length of pull is 13.625". This model is not just a firearm; it's a piece of history, a testament to the craftsmanship of the past.
