I also shot an A-5 Lt. 20 for over 25 years. I never considered the recoil harsh at the time. However, when I stepped up to a 12 gauge 870, I was surprised that the perceived recoil seemed less to me that the A-5.

I concur that the A-5 is a wonderful gun. It now rests semi-retired in a hallowed corner of my gun case.
