Overview

Built for hunters who want a 12-gauge semi-auto suited to demanding waterfowl setups, this shotgun pairs a 28" barrel with a 3-1/2" chamber and a right-hand configuration. The Optifade Marsh / Patriot Brown finish is aimed at concealment in marsh environments, while the red-bar front sight supports quick target acquisition. It also includes a 3+1 magazine capacity and comes with choke options ranging from C to F, giving it flexibility for different shot presentations. At 7.0 lbs with a 14-3/8" length of pull, it offers a balanced fit for field use without overstating its role beyond hunting applications.

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • The 3.5" chamber gives flexibility with larger loads, but it also means the gun is built around a heavier-duty setup than a standard 12-gauge field gun.
  • At 7.0 lbs and 49.6" overall length, it may feel substantial for hunters who prioritize a lighter, more compact shotgun.
  • The 28" barrel is well suited to medium- to long-range shooting, but it is less compact for tight cover or fast handling in confined spaces.
  • The right-hand configuration and 14-3/8" length of pull make fit more specific, so shooters should confirm the stock dimensions suit them before purchase.
