The Cypher is a 20-gauge over/under shotgun with a 28-inch barrel, deluxe walnut stock, and fiber optic front sight. The break-action over/under format is the standard for sporting clays and field work, and the 20 gauge keeps the gun light. 6.3 lbs. is easy to swing on crossing targets.

Detailed Features 

The steel receiver has a stainless finish that contrasts with the blued barrels and walnut stock. Five chokes are included: Full, Improved Cylinder, Modified, and Extended Skeet, giving you flexibility across clay disciplines and upland bird hunting. 
 
The break-action mechanism is straightforward to operate. Opening for loading and unloading is fast, and there's nothing to cycle or rack between shots. The fiber optic front bead works well in variable light conditions for quick target pickup. Ambidextrous design means it handles equally well from either shoulder.

The Cypher 20-gauge over/under draws favorable comments on build quality and aesthetics for its price range. The walnut stock finish and blued barrels give it a traditional look that holds up in comparison to more expensive guns visually, and owners frequently note that it feels solid, not plasticky, when mounted.

Performance on clay targets and in the field is generally well-reported. Recoil in 20 gauge is mild, which makes it comfortable for longer range sessions. The fiber optic bead gets positive mentions for improved target visibility in lower light.

The common criticisms involve the price point relative to comparably-featured Turkish-made over/unders from established brands, and a handful of users note a break-in period before the action cycles as smoothly as it will once seasoned. Aftermarket accessory options are less developed than for brands with longer market histories. Overall, sentiment leans positive for the buyer who wants a good-looking, functional 20-gauge O/U at a reasonable price.
