I agree those humpback A-5 Brownings are unfit and shouldn't even be allowed to reside in your gun safe. Best to get them out of there, before they infect the other shotguns. Just send them to me, and you won't have to be concerned any longer.
Seriously, I love the A-5's. A 1952 vintage A-5, with a factory cylinder bore barrel is one of my favorite upland bird guns.
Advice on the Franchi AL-48: Lube the magazine tube well with light oil, and that should resolve your functioning problem. Mine came with factory instructions to keep all lube off the magazine tube, and that is flat wrong. When the tube was dry, I would have malfunctions. When properly lubes, it NEVER failed to feed. Great quail, rabbit, and dove gun !
