Get a pre-1980 Ithaca 37, you'll love it

Only people who like having a dick in their hand all day want an Auto-5.
If you MUST get a recoil-operated autoshucker, get a Remington 11-48.

>My thought was that since birdshot is lower pressure than buck or target load it might have trouble cycling
Hunting ammo is more powerful than clay target ammo. It will cycle fine. Just done fire steel shot unless the gun's choke is rated for it.

Found the retards who don't shoot.
OP, get a minimum 24" barrel, for clays a 30" barrel is best.

You guys don't know shit about Auto 5s and are trying to give advice on them? Kill yourselves, thanks.
OP, there are friction rings on the magazine tube that act as "brakes" for the recoiling barrel. You set the rings up one way for light recoiling loads (called 'low brass' in that time) and heavy recoiling loads (then referred to as 'high brass'). Of course today the high/low brass monikers aren't always indicative of the power rating of the cartridge, so it's up to the user to know the amount of recoil his cartridge will produce and set up the rings properly... either for more 'braking' or less.
This is done by locking the action back, unscrewing the magazine cap, removing the forearm and barrel, and positioning the rings as shown in this pic.
The pic is sized so you can print it out, cut it to size, and glue it inside your forearm, if you choose to.
^^^ THAT is how you give advice on this board.
Class dismissed.
