Savage 720
Notes: Very
similar to the Remington 11R, the Savage 720 is also an American copy of the
Browning Auto-5M. It was not
marketed to police departments, but was meant to be a military shotgun.

SRM SRM-1216 Gen 2
Notes: The
SRM-1216 is a big, semiautomatic shotgun fed from four tubular magazines below
the barrel, each holding four rounds.
It is surprisingly light for its size, due to the use of aluminum,
polymer, and light steel alloys used in its construction. This provides flex
room so that the SRM-1216 can fire almost any sort of 12-Gauge ammunition and
lengths. The polymer magazine tubes
are in a cluster of four, with each one rotating in place with the firing
chamber. The barrel is 18 inches,
and the receiver has a MIL-STD-1913 rail above it, and side rail forends.
The barrel is cold-hammer forged and finished with a durable Nitride
finish. The barrel has a Full Choke and does not take interchangeable chokes.
The design is semi-bullpup and has a Zytel polymer stock with most of the
mechanism within it. The four-barreled magazine hangs on a hook with magazine
hangers on them, allowing the tubes to be reloaded quickly.
Either single tubes or an entire magazine cluster can be reloaded at
once. A further lever on the
magazine hanger doubles as the front sight.
The receiver is billet aluminum, and the spine of the weapon is
reinforced. The chamber is fluted to reduce weight.
The magazine rotates on its own, or can be rotated with the flip of a
switch. Rotating manually takes one
phase.
Some shooters
have noticed that the magazine cluster and its parts get a bit hot after
prolonged firing, and recommend wearing gloves.

Weatherby SAS
Notes: The SAS
(Semi-Automatic Shotgun) is the descendant of such Weatherby shotguns as the
Centurion, Centurion II, and Eighty-Two.
The SAS is built for Weatherby by Valtro of Italy (who also makes and
sells a similar shotgun, the A930 SL).
It was introduced in 1999. The
SAS is operated by a self-regulating gas system which allows the shooter to fire
many different types and loadings of cartridges.
The stock contains a shock absorber to take up some of the recoil, and in
addition, the butt has a thick recoil pad.
The trigger mechanism may be removed from the weapon in one piece for
maintenance (though it is not adjustable.
The bolt catch incorporates a mechanism to cut off feed from the tubular
magazine so that special rounds may be fired without emptying the magazine.
The barrel wears a hard chrome lining.
Above the barrel is a ventilated sighting rib which also contributes to
head dispersion. The SAS at the
time of introduction was available with a wooden or plastic stock (the latter in
black or camouflage), but the line was revised in 2002, with separate sub-models
being introduced with a synthetic stock. The chamber may take 3-inch or
2.75-inch shells. The SAS is sold
with Briley IMC interchangeable chokes, and has a receiver made from aircraft
aluminum. Up to three spacer rings
may be placed between the receiver housing and stock to allow the length of the
stock to be varied somewhat. They
can also angle the stock somewhat to suit the shooter.
There are several versions of the SAS.
SAS camouflage
versions come in dark leaf pattern known as Break-Up or a straw motif known as
Shadow Grass. The stocks are
synthetic and overprinted with the camouflage pattern.
The interchangeable chokes which come with the guns are Full, Modified,
and Extra Full for the Break-Up or Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Skeet for
the Shadow Grass. The two come in
slightly different barrel lengths.
The sighting rib is tipped with a special high-contrast plastic tube bead.
The SAS Field
and Synthetic versions differ only in the stocks; the Field has walnut stock,
while the Synthetic has a stock of matte black high-impact plastic.
They have the same weight and use the same barrel lengths.
They come with interchangeable chokes of Improved Cylinder, Modified, and
Full.
The SAS Sporting
Clays shotgun is designed not only for clays, but for fowling.
The stock is walnut, and the barrels are the longest of the range.
The interchangeable chokes supplied are Full, Modified, Improved
Cylinder, and a pair of special Skeet chokes known as SC I and SC II.

Notes: Like
Remington did with its Models 870 and 1100,
It took close to
a year to overcome this problem.
About this time
(late 1966), the US Marine Corps was looking for a new semiautomatic combat
shotgun, and Winchester decided to enter the Model 1400 into the competition.
Unfortunately, the relative complexity of the Model 1400 Combat version
and the fact that undisclosed bugs kept popping up meant that the Model 1400 was
prone to stoppages for all sorts of reasons, especially when dirty or abused.
The long 23-inch barrel was also frowned upon by the Marines.
The Model 1400
Sporting (civilian) version continued on for a few more years, but eventually it
too was discontinued, even though it did not have the problems of the Model 1400
Combat.
Construction of
the Model 1400 consisted of wooden furniture, an aircraft aluminum receiver and
magazine, and other metalwork of steel.
The tubular magazine of the Sporting version looks big, but much room is
taken up by the gas mechanism.
Sights range from a ventilated sighting rib to rifle-type sights; the sights of
the Combat version were designed to be similar to those of the M-14 rifle.

Notes: This was
originally a sporting shotgun based on the Super X.
It was introduced in 1999, and is a gas-operated semiautomatic shotgun
with a mechanism that automatically compensates for rounds of differing loadings
or types. The standard Super X2
comes in Magnum Walnut and Magnum Stalker versions; they are essentially
identical, except that the Magnum Walnut model has a walnut stock and fore-end
(with a thick recoil pad on the butt) and a standard ventilated sighting rib
above the barrel, while the Magnum Stalker uses a black high-impact plastic
stock and fore-end and has sight beads on the front and midway down the barrel
rib. These two versions have
30-inch barrels and weigh and shoot the same for game purposes.
The Hunter Walnut and Hunter Stalker are similar to the Magnum Walnut and
Magnum Stalker, but they fire 3-inch shells instead of 3.5-inch shells, and come
in three barrel lengths. Another
type is the Camo, which is essentially similar to the Hunter Stalker for game
purposes with the exception of having no sight beads.
These guns use Invector interchangeable chokes.
In 2001, the
Super X2 Sporting Clays appeared.
This version is similar to the Hunter Walnut, but uses 28 or 30-inch barrels,
has back-bored barrels, and has a stock equipped with spacers to allow a more
customized fit for the shooter. The
stock, fore-end, and metalwork are finished with a low-glare finish.
The Sporting Clays is equipped with Invector-Plus interchangeable chokes
of five types.
In the same
year,
In 2003, the
Greenhead was introduced; this version is designed especially for fowling, has
3.5-inch chambers with Invector-Plus interchangeable chokes.
It is somewhat heavier than the Magnum Stalker, and uses a synthetic
stock colored in a greenish-teal color known as “Greenhead.”
Also in 2003, the Cantilever Deer was introduced; this version is
specially designed for slug throwing, with a short 22-inch barrel, synthetic
stock and fore-end, and rifle-type sights, along with a cantilever rail similar
to the one used with the Practical Mk II above.
Some new
versions to the line are the NWTF Turkey, with a synthetic stock and fore-end,
and finished in camouflage of either a “Mossy Oak Obsession” or “Mossy Oak
Break-Up” pattern. The barrel is 24
inches long and equipped with a fixed choke of Extra Full.
The NWTF Turkey has a ventilated sighting rib equipped with three-dot
TruGlo sights on the rib. It can
fire shells from 2.75 to 3.5 inches in length.
The Universal Hunter Field
is designed to be an all-purpose gun; it fires 3.5-inch shells.
The stock and fore-end are synthetic, and the gun is finished in either
of the Mossy Oak camouflage patterns.
The barrel is 26 inches long, has a sighting rib and is equipped with
Invector-Plus interchangeable chokes.
The gun has a sling. The
Universal Hunter Turkey is essentially the same weapon, but the Invector-Plus
chokes include an Extra-Full choke.
The Light Field
is just that – a lighter version of the Super X2.
Despite the light weight, it still comes with medium and long barrels,
and has a walnut stock and fore-end.
The barrels use Invector-Plus interchangeable chokes.

Winchester
Super X3
Notes: This is
essentially the current production version of the Super X2.
It too comes in several versions.
The Ultimate
Sporting Adjustable has furniture in grade II or III walnut with a satin oil
finish. It has an adjustable
cheekpiece, red ergonomic controls and magazine tube endcap.
The controls are reversible. It has the Versaport porting for reduced
recoil. The receiver is nickel-plated, while the barrel is finished in
Perma-Cote. The bore and chamber
are chromed. It is meant for sport
shooters, and has TRUEGLO fiberoptic front sight and ventilated sight rib.
A middle sight bead is in white. It has a back-bored barrel (reduces
recoil, but has no effect in game terms).
It has the Active Valve system for reliability and recoil reduction;
operation is by gas. The butt has a
Pachmayer Decelerator recoil pad.
The trigger pack drops out for maintenance. The Ultimate Sporting Adjustable
comes with five Signature choke tubes to allow the user to set almost any choke
desired (Light Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Skeet).
The barrel is 28, 30, or 32 inches.
The Composite
Sporting Carbon Fiber is mostly the same as the Ultimate Sporting Adjustable,
but does not have the adjustable cheekpiece and has synthetic furniture wrapped
in carbon fiber. The receiver is matte nickel instead of bright nickel. The drop
and cast are adjustable through shims. The receiver and barrel are the same.
Other details are the same as the Ultimate Sporting Adjustable. The Composite
Sporting is the same shotgun without the carbon fiber wrapping, but for game
purposes, is identical to the Composite Sporting Carbon Fiber, except for
costing $1 more.
The Field is a
subset of the Ultimate Sporting Adjustable.
It walnut is Grade I, but still with a satin oil finish.
The receiver is light aluminum alloy instead of steel.
It has the same back boring and ventilated sighting rib, but has a brass
bead front sight. The bore and
chamber are still chrome-plated, but the choke tubes supplied are Invector-Plus
tubes, a slightly lesser quality. It retains the Active Valve System, but does
not have the Versaport System. The
controls are reversible instead of ambidextrous, and the drop-out trigger group
remains, but it is not adjustable.
Most importantly, the barrel choices are shorter and the gauges include 20
gauge. The shells are 3-inch
Magnums instead of 2.75” shells. It is much lighter, so recoil is stiff.
The Field Compact is essentially the same, but lighter and with a shorter
length of pull for smaller shooters.
The Black Shadow
is made of, as the name would indicate all-black synthetic furniture and black
Cerekote receiver and barrel.
Gripping surfaces are textured, along with a hand swell on the fore-end.
It has the Active Valve system, which increases reliability and reduces
recoil; the Inflex Technology recoil pad reduces this further.
The Active Valve System also allows the Black Shadow to digest nearly any
load. The Black Shadow is back bored and has a chrome-plated bore and chamber.
It has a ventilated sighting rib and a brass bead front sight.
The Black Shadow is equipped with Quadra-Vent ports to further decrease
felt recoil. It has ambidextrous
controls and a drop-out trigger pack for maintenance (though this is not
adjustable). Cast and drop of the stock are adjustable through the use of shims,
and LOP is adjustable though the use of spacers.
The Cantilever
Buck is a slugster, with a rifled barrel for use with slugs but able to handle
buckshot as well; it does especially well with sabot slugs.
The name “Cantilever” refers to the Cantilever Scope Mounting System,
which, though it is not a Picatinny rail, is essentially a Weaver Rail and can
mount most scopes and some other optical devices and accessories. It has the
Active Valve reliability/recoil reduction technology. It has an alloy receiver
finished in black Cerekote, as it the barrel; the bore and chamber is back-bored
and chromed. It has a TRUEGLO fiberoptic front sight and an adjustable rear
sight, like a rifle. It has reversible controls and a drop-out trigger group.
It can use cast and drop adjustments using shims, and LOP spacers. It has
the Inflex Technology recoil pad. The furniture is synthetic; magazine capacity
is reduced as some sabot slug shells are longer than normal.
The Waterfowl is
designed specifically for duck and goose hunters.
As such, its native choke is full, though it comes with Invector Plus
screw-in choke tubes to handle other situations or when you want a different
pattern. Like most Super X3s, it
has back-boring and a chrome-plated chamber and bore.
It is optimized for buckshot, though it is also capable of firing slugs.
It has a full-length ventilated sighting rib with a TRUGLO Long Bead
fiberoptic front sight. It used the
Active Valve system, and is able to digest most loads. It fires a supermagnum
shell. It uses Quadra-Vent Ports to reduce recoil, and has an Inflex Technology
recoil pad. The controls are reversible for left-handed shooters.
It is adjustable for drop and cast by the use of shims, and LOP by
spacers. Furniture is synthetic, and the entire gun is finished in Mossy Oak
Shadow Grass Blades camouflage.
The Universal
Hunter is almost the same gun as the Waterfowl, but uses Mossy Oak Break-Up
camouflage, and does not fire supermagnum shells.
It is otherwise, for game purposes, the same as the Waterfowl.
The Cantilever
Turkey is almost the same as the Cantilever Buck, but has a longer barrel, no
rifling, and the screw-in Invector Choke tubes include the Extra-Full Turkey
choke. Its 12-gauge shell is a supermagnum.
The Long Beard
is equipped with an extended Briley Extra-Full Turkey Full Beard choke tube, and
the synthetic stock is equipped with a pistol grip.
The Briley tube is also an Invector-Plus tube, and the gun comes with
three other such tubes. The angle of the pistol grip, drop, and cast are
adjustable through the use of shims; LOP is adjustable through the use of
spacers. The cheekpiece is raised
and padded; the butt may be equipped with one of three recoil pads to further
adjust the LOP. The stock is
equipped with textured gripping surfaces.
It is back-bored, with a chromed chamber and bore. It has a Weaver-type
cantilever rail to attach most optics and accessories. Quadra-Vent ports reduce
felt recoil, the trigger group drops out, and the controls are reversible.
Barrel is 24 inches, for use against turkeys and fast-flying waterfowl.
The entire gun has a Mossy Oak Break-Up Country finish. Except for this,
the Long Beard is identical to the Cantilever Turkey in 12 Gauge, for game
purposes.
