Our Assessment: This is one of the great field shotguns of this generation. This shotgun uses interchangeable chokes and shoots 3” shells, providing great flexibility, and with the gas action, the felt recoil will be “soft”. This shotgun will make a wonderful Father’s Day or graduation present for that deserving someone. Please see our photos and good luck!
