In the world of shotguns, practicality and performance often find themselves at odds with cost. However, the SE17 by Huglu is a masterful exception to this rule. This shotgun stands as an economical yet attractive alternative to its more celebrated sibling, the Sporter. Crafted in the same esteemed manufacturing plant, it maintains versatility while offering a more budget-friendly option.
The SE17 achieves its affordability through simplified components and a plainer stock design. These adjustments do not impede functionality but rather enhance accessibility for those seeking quality without extravagance. Available in both 12-gauge and 20-gauge options, it caters to shooters young and old with choices between wood or synthetic stocks.
Each SE17 ships equipped with five choke tubes using the Huglu thread pattern—ensuring adaptability for various shooting disciplines straight out of the box. For those desiring further customization, specialty aftermarket chokes can be easily sourced from reputable manufacturers such as Trulock, Carlson’s, Patternmaster, and Briley.
Whether you're stepping into competitive arenas or partaking in leisurely sport shooting sessions, the SE17 proves itself as a reliable companion that does not compromise on essential features despite its modest price tag.
