Retay ACE Upland Ultralight 20 GA 26" 3rd Walnut Shotgun

In 20 gauge the ACE Upland Ultralight gets genuinely light, right around 5 pounds 11 ounces with a 26 inch barrel. That is the kind of weight that changes how far you are willing to walk in the last hour of a long day, and it is the main argument for a 20 over a 12 on birds that do not take much shot to fold. The aluminum slopeback receiver is drilled and tapped for a base or a rib mount.

The action is straight line inertia rather than gas, so there is no piston to clean and nothing venting fouling back into the receiver. The barrel is deep bore drilled with a factory lengthened forcing cone and a single fiber optic bead. Five flush chokes come along, running cylinder, improved cylinder, modified, improved modified, and full. The stock is AA grade satin walnut, set at 14.5 inches of pull with a shim kit for drop and cast, and the safety is oversized and reversible for left handed shooters. The trigger group pulls out at the push of a button. Chambered for shells up to 3 inches with a 3 round magazine, this is a bird gun first, though a light 20 gauge earns its keep on clays between seasons.
