The "Springfield Automatic Shotgun" is a clone of the Browning A5 produced by Savage/Springfield.
The Browning A5 is credited as being the first semi automatic shotgun design ever produced. It is a recoil operated, tube magazine fed gun with a reciprocating barrel. It has a 5 round capacity, one in the chamber and 4 in the magazine.
Recoil is managed and harnessed by a system of friction rings and spring that can be set up in different configurations to maximize operation with different powered loads.

How do you find information on Springfield Arms shotguns?
Contrary to what some believe, Springfield Arms was never a subsidary company of Cresent Arms. Springfeild Arms, like Cresent Arms, were both bought out by Stevens/Savage. Unlike the Cresent, Springfield manufacturing continued after the buy out. Some clarification: Springfield Arms Co was absorbed by Stevens very early, before 1900. Stevens continued to use the Springfield name on certain models of shotgun. Savage absorbed Stevens around 1930 or so, and continued to use the Springfield name on into the 1980's, generally on guns sold to mass-marketers. Crescent Firearms was originally an independent manufacturer that was bought by the major wholesale HD Folsom, which also eventually was absorbed by Savage.
