Detailed Features
The over/under configuration keeps the sighting plane consistent between shots, which matters for clay shooting and helps with crossing birds in the field. The 28-inch barrel gives you a smooth swing without being unwieldy in heavy cover.
28 gauge produces lighter recoil than 20 or 12 gauge, which makes long days of upland hunting more comfortable. The Turkish walnut stock has good natural grain and provides a firm, non-slip grip without requiring a rubber coating.
The Redhead is fitted with ejectors, so empty hulls clear the chamber rather than sitting in the breech waiting to be picked out by hand.
Usage
The Redhead works well for upland hunting (quail, pheasant, woodcock) where the 28 gauge is an effective and traditional choice. It's also a solid option for sporting clays or recreational range days where a light-recoiling gun is preferred. New or smaller-framed shooters often take to the 28 gauge more easily than heavier gauges, and the Redhead's balance and weight make it accessible without feeling like a compromise.
