The SX4 is an evolution in the world of semi-automatic shotguns. Building upon the foundation laid by its predecessor, the SX3, this firearm brings forth improvements that cater to both performance and comfort. The SX4's ergonomics have been refined; it is slightly slimmer and lighter, offering a redesigned grip that enhances both comfort and precision when aiming.
In challenging weather conditions where dexterity may be compromised, the enlarged function controls and trigger guard stand out as crucial enhancements for safer operation. The innovative Active Valve System sets this shotgun apart with its ability to self-adjust gas pressure to reliably cycle through a wide variety of loads while minimizing felt recoil.
This system channels excess gases from heavy loads through forward Quadra-Vent ports, ensuring cleaner and more reliable functioning over time. The synthetic buttstock features Inflex Technology with a recoil pad designed to direct recoil impulses away from your cheek—significantly reducing perceived kickback. For those seeking personalized comfort, length-of-pull spacers allow for a tailored fit between stock and recoil pad.
The ambidextrous safety mechanism has been thoughtfully designed larger for easier access and can be reversed for left or right-handed use. Its position at the rear of the angular-profile trigger guard ensures intuitive engagement under any condition.
Engineered for durability, the chrome-plated chamber and bore provide exceptional resistance against wear as well as protection from rust and corrosion—a testament to its longevity even in harsh environments like waterfowl habitats represented by its Mossy Oak Shadow Grass finish.
Maintenance is straightforward thanks to a dropout trigger group that simplifies cleaning or lubrication processes. With an overall length of 49 inches yet weighing only 6 lbs 12 oz., it balances portability with robust capability—holding four (4) shells sized at 2-3/4". This makes it not just another tool but rather an integral part of any serious shooter's arsenal.
