Mossberg SA-28: The All-Purpose Field Shotgun
In the realm of sporting shotguns, the Mossberg SA-28 stands as a testament to refined craftsmanship and versatile performance. Designed for both hunting and target shooting, this lightweight shotgun offers an ideal balance between power and ease of use.
The heart of the SA-28 is its semi-automatic gas-operated system, ensuring smooth cycling with every pull of the trigger. This mechanism not only enhances reliability but also contributes to its reputation as a "soft shooter," making it accessible even for those new to shotgunning.
Chambered in the modest yet effective 28 gauge, the Mossberg SA-28 features a generous capacity of five rounds. Its barrel stretches out to a precise length of 26 inches, equipped with a vent rib design that aids in quick target acquisition and follow-through shots.
The fixed length-of-pull (LOP) measures at an accommodating 14.5 inches, providing comfort and stability during extended sessions in the field or on the range. A bead sight sits atop this blued beauty, offering straightforward aiming without unnecessary distractions.
This all-purpose field model comes complete with a sport choke set that caters to various shooting scenarios—from tight patterns needed during hunting excursions to broader spreads favored by clay shooters.
