Frequently Asked Questions
What types of loads will the Browning A5 Wicked Wing cycle reliably?
The A5 Wicked Wing uses Browning's Kinematic Drive inertia system, which is engineered to cycle a wide range of 12-gauge loads — from light 2¾" target loads all the way up to heavy 3.5" magnum shells. This makes it an exceptionally versatile shotgun for waterfowl hunters who may use different loads throughout the season. Steel shot, bismuth, and other non-toxic waterfowl loads are all compatible with the included Invector-DS extended waterfowl chokes.
Why is the Cerakote and chromed bore finish important for waterfowl hunting?
Waterfowl hunting exposes your shotgun to some of the harshest conditions imaginable — rain, mud, salt marshes, and constant moisture. The Cerakote Burnt Bronze finish on the receiver and barrel provides a hard, chemical-resistant barrier against rust and corrosion that far outperforms traditional bluing. The fully chromed bore adds an additional layer of protection inside the barrel, simplifies cleaning after a long day in the field, and extends the service life of the gun significantly over years of heavy use.
Is the Browning A5 Wicked Wing available for purchase in California?
Browning A5 models sold at Goodland Guns in California are compliant with state regulations applicable to shotguns. However, California law requires all firearm purchases to go through a licensed dealer with a 10-day waiting period and a background check via the DROS process. We recommend contacting Goodland Guns directly to confirm current availability, verify compliance with any applicable state-specific requirements, and complete your transfer in accordance with California law.
