Pros

  • Dual bead vent rib sighting system aids consistent sight alignment.
  • 3-inch chambers add flexibility for a range of 12-gauge loads.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • This is an as-is firearm listing, so the exact completeness of original components cannot be guaranteed and should be verified from the photos before purchase.
  • The 26 inch barrels favor quick handling, which is useful in the field but offers less reach than longer-barreled options for some shooters.
  • With 3 inch chambers and the included Modified and Improved Cylinder chokes, the setup is oriented toward close to mid-range use rather than a broader choke selection.
  • The wood stock and forearm are in excellent condition, but this is still a previously owned gun and may show minor dents or dings from prior use.
