A little more info please. When you pull the forearm, is it gas operated or does it have springs? Also where was it made?

Sorry I wasn't very clear in my original post I am looking at one to buy I am looking for a good shotgun ,I have tried the 500s, the 870s and other pumps like those then I picked up this nice Browning A 5 auto and wow it shoulders so much better than the others and seems to points very naturally but I don't know A lot about them that's why I was asking for more info sorry if it is to vague

There were millions made , they are a fabulous gun , if you want to shoot steel buy a late one made in Japan with choke tubes . I have a number of the old ones and I expect my grandchildren will be using them
