Weatherby Orion I 20 GA 28" Shotgun

This Orion I puts 28 inch barrels on a 20 gauge frame, which makes it a light, quick handling over/under for upland birds. It weighs about 6.2 lbs. The boxlock action sits in a low profile forged steel receiver, slim because the locking bars slide in above the ejectors instead of under the barrels. The chrome lined monobloc barrels have 3 inch chambers, a ventilated top rib and a single brass bead up front.

The metal is blued to a high luster, and the A grade walnut stock is checkered with a Prince of Wales grip and a 14.5 inch length of pull. Improved Cylinder, Modified and Full choke tubes are included, so one gun covers close flushing quail and longer shots on late season pheasants or doves. Automatic ejectors toss the empties clear when you open the action, and the top tang safety is ambidextrous, so a left handed shooter runs it just as easily. A 20 gauge this light is pleasant to carry all day and kicks less than a 12, which also makes it a good choice for a newer shooter on the skeet field.
