Welcome to the forum A5Mag12, I' ve never heard of a Diawa A5.I would find a used Browning A5 and know I was buying quality.Sound like something from China or ***an?If you can find a Belgium Browning grab it.

Contrary to poppular opinion, the Brownings made in ***an have been of higher quality than the Belgian ones! The mechanical components are equal, the steel is equal OR BETTER, and the ***anese engraving is BETTER executed! The ***anese have better manual dexterity than Europeans! They do better engraving.

Eldequello, you may be right on that one there is a vast difference between a Belgian made BLR which i owned and a ***anese BLR...way better workmanship on the *** one.

John M. Browning is probably turning over in his grave that some models of Browning' s are made in ***an.They might be high quality but still ***anese.I' ll stick with Belgium Browning' s the way J.M.B. intended it to be.
