This review covers a 1972 Browning A5 'Light Twelve' 12 Gauge shotgun, nicknamed the 'Widowmaker' or 'Humpback'. The speaker acquired it for $250 two years prior. The video highlights the shotgun's engravings and serial number, showcasing its historical significance and collector appeal.
The Winchester Model 1911, nicknamed the 'Widowmaker,' was Winchester's attempt to circumvent John Moses Browning's patents for the Auto-5. Lacking a charging handle due to patent issues, it featured an awkward barrel-cycling mechanism. This design, coupled with a dangerous 'ground-cocking' method, earned it its ominous reputation.
This video explores a unique Browning Auto-5 prototype modified by Winchester to circumvent John Browning's patents. Winchester's refusal to pay royalties led Browning to partner with FN, forcing Winchester to innovate. The prototype features a ribbed barrel for manual cycling, a workaround for the patented bolt handle, and early serial numbers indicating personal use by Browning.
