Ha, ha, ha...... the A-5 is just like a 1957 Corvette. At the time it was new, it was great. Now days they just beats the crap outa ya and are hard to keep running.
However, my first shotgun, that I owned, at 14, was a sxs Fox 12 ga gun with a nice "soft" plastic butt plate. I still have the gun. That Fox will make blood blisters. My 1946 A-5 12ga (a gift) is great, compared to the sxs Fox. But, now days, the Browning 525s and Beretta 391s have ruined me. Now I am just an old whimp  The Fox has not been to the field for over 30 years and the A-5, well it has not seen daylight for 4 years.The A-5 folks are A-5 folks, and around here a fellow could get tared and feathered by bad mouthing the A-5. Cause "its a hard shootin gun."  Yeh, for about 3 boxes of shells, then it starts running on 4 cylinders.Ed
