Ruger Red Label III 20 GA 30" 2rd Walnut Shotgun

The Ruger Red Label III marks the return of one of the best known over under shotguns in America. It is built for Ruger by the craftsmen at Connecticut Shotgun Manufacturing Company (CSMC), and this version is the 20 gauge with 30 inch barrels and a walnut stock. The chambers are 3 inch, so it shoots both 2 3/4 inch and 3 inch shells, and five screw in Tru-Choke style choke tubes come with it.

The alloy steel receiver is precision machined and finely polished, and the locking system is hand fitted for a tight lockup that stays reliable after thousands of rounds. The blued barrels are brazed with a matted vent rib, and the bores are smooth plated for steel shot. The trigger is a single inertia type. The walnut stock has a neutral cast and roughly 24 lines per inch of checkering, with 1.5 inches of drop at the comb and 2.5 inches at the heel. The gun weighs 6.5 pounds. Ruger aims it at upland birds, skeet, sporting clays and waterfowl, and it comes in a premium custom case.
