Stevens 555 Compact Over/Under Shotgun 20 Gauge 24 Inch Barrel

In the realm of shotguns, versatility and precision are paramount. Stevens has expanded its renowned 555 line with the introduction of the 555 Compact, a masterstroke in firearms engineering tailored for those who require both performance and adaptability in a more manageable package. This over-and-under shotgun is meticulously crafted to cater to smaller-framed shooters without compromising on quality or capability.

The heart of the 555 Compact lies in its construction. A light yet durable aluminum receiver, scaled perfectly to gauge, sets the foundation for this elegant firearm. Reinforcing this lightweight structure is a steel insert at the breech—an intelligent design choice that reduces weight while enhancing strength where it matters most.

For aesthetics and handling, Stevens has selected Turkish walnut—a wood known not only for its beauty but also for providing excellent balance and control. The mid-length fore-end complements a compact length-of-pull at 13.25 inches, ensuring comfort and ease of use even during extended shooting sessions.

Functionality remains uncompromised with features such as shell extractors that simplify reloading under pressure, alongside a manual safety system designed with user peace of mind foremost in consideration. Central to its operation is a single selective mechanical trigger which offers reliability across varying conditions—a testament to Stevens' commitment to craftsmanship.

This model comes equipped with five interchangeable choke tubes, allowing you precise control over your shot patterning depending on your target or environment—be it clays or game birds.

Further contributing to its appeal are barrels made from robust carbon steel adorned with an attractive semi-gloss black finish extending up to 24 inches—ensuring durability matched by visual elegance. With an overall length just shy of forty inches and weighing merely five pounds, portability meets stability seamlessly within this refined tool.

Whether you're introducing someone new into shooting sports or seeking out an agile companion yourself; look no further than the Stevens 555 Compact—a perfect blend between tradition-inspired design elements fused harmoniously together through modern innovation.
