The Rock Island Armory Meriva stands as a testament to the enduring utility and reliability of the pump action shotgun. Chambered in 12 gauge, this firearm is designed for those who value both function and form.
At its core, the Meriva features an 18.5-inch smooth bore barrel, finished with a sleek black anodized coating that resists wear and tear while maintaining its striking appearance. The barrel length offers a balance between maneuverability and accuracy, making it suitable for various shooting applications whether you're on the range or out in the field.
This shotgun comes equipped with a fixed front sight that ensures quick target acquisition under pressure. Its robust construction includes a polymer stock fitted with a recoil pad, providing comfort during extended use by absorbing much of the felt recoil from each shot fired.
The Meriva boasts a five-round tube magazine capacity housed within its compact design—an overall length of just over forty inches (40.15")—making it easy to handle without sacrificing ammunition availability when you need it most.
An impressive weight of only 5.9 pounds means this firearm can be carried comfortably over long distances without fatigue setting in too quickly—a critical factor for any serious shooter who spends considerable time afield or at competitive events.
The Rock Island Armory Meriva is not merely another tool; it's an embodiment of tradition meeting innovation—a reliable companion ready to perform whenever called upon by those who understand what true craftsmanship entails in firearms today.
