(5 out of 5) A joy to smash clay with!
by Rob from Centennial, CO on May 18, 2025

I used to shoot clays with an over-under, but after buying this I can’t go back. It’s so smooth and fast it almost feels like cheating. The oversized controls are great if you’re wearing gloves. The recoil is so light I could shoot all day and not feel even a tinge of soreness the next morning. It actually reduces recoil so well that I’ve begun using much hotter shells. It’s also very well constructed. I imagine this is the kind of gun that will end up in my will. It’s a great gun to introduce friends and family to clay sports with. The simple controls are great, along with the semi-auto, so they don’t get overwhelmed by what to do next. That soft recoil is crucial, because it’s the number one fear most new shooters have, especially because popular culture talks about 12 gauge as though it’ll separate the men from the boys and kick like an angry mule. I’ve introduced a dozen people to clay shooting with this gun and they’ve all had an amazing experience.

TL;DR – Buy once, cry once. This is a great gun.
