How does the new Browning A5 work?

The A5 is a recoil-driven gun, meaning the force caused by the shell firing is what works the gun's action. All recoil guns work off the same principle of physics: for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Browning calls its version the Kinematic Drive System.

What's better Browning A5 or Maxus?

Browning has given both guns excellent recoil pads. The Maxus is outfitted with a soft Inflex pad designed to deflect recoil forces down and away from the face. The A5 has an even thicker Inflex II recoil pad that does an excellent job of cushioning the shoulder from the forces of inertia-induced recoil.

Are Browning shotguns gas or inertia?

Being a short-recoil-operated gun—not a “gas” gun—it does kick harder than a gas semi-auto, but less than a fixed-breech gun. To tell you the truth, I couldn't tell the difference, though I did notice that a Browning over/under I also used certainly had more recoil than the A5.
