Retay KOTA HT-3000 12 GA 3rd Walnut Shotgun

The KOTA HT-3000 is a semi auto 12 gauge from Retay USA, and this version wears walnut furniture instead of the synthetic stocks that fill most of the rack. The magazine holds 3 rounds. A fiber optic front sight sits up front, which is the single most useful thing a field gun can have when a bird gets up in low light and you need the bead to show itself right now instead of a second later.

Semi auto operation does two things for a shooter. It cycles the next shell without you working the gun, so a second or third shot comes as fast as you can get back on target, and it spreads recoil across the cycle instead of sending all of it into your shoulder at once. Walnut furniture carries more weight than plastic, and that weight is what keeps a swing moving smoothly through a crossing target rather than stalling at the trigger pull. Walnut also ages better than a molded stock; scratches sand out and the grain is different on every gun. This is a plain working field shotgun for dove fields, a duck blind, a round of clays, or general chores around the property.
