Features 

 
The chrome-lined barrel resists fouling and corrosion, which matters when running it hard over a waterfowl season. Deep bore drilling is intended to improve gas dynamics and pattern consistency. Five Marapro chokes (Cylinder, IC, Modified, Improved Modified, Full) cover a broad range of hunting and clay-target applications. 
 
The TruGlo red fiber optic bead gives a clean sight picture in varying light. The aluminum receiver keeps weight down while holding up to field use. Mossy Oak Obsession camo is oriented toward turkey and spring hunting where dense foliage matters. 
 
The crossbolt safety is familiar and quick to disengage. Semi-auto cycling handles a range of 12-gauge loads, though some users report sensitivity to very light loads, 2-3/4" target shells specifically. 
 

Usage 

• Turkey and upland hunting with the Mossy Oak camo 
• Waterfowl with chrome-lined bore handling steel shot 
• General clay sports with the five-choke set

The Gordion gets positive marks for its lightweight handling and comfortable fit through a long hunt. Mossy Oak Obsession camo is noted as effective in the field by turkey and upland hunters who value concealment over a plain finish.

The semi-auto action cycles reliably with mid- and heavy-weight field loads. Some owners report issues with lighter target loads. Feeding or cycling problems come up in community discussions, and the consensus is that the Gordion prefers 3-dram-equivalent or heavier shells for consistent function.

For competitive shooting, a few users find it less well-suited than dedicated clay guns, citing the fixed pistol grip and 24-inch barrel as better oriented toward hunting than breaking clays. Customer service responsiveness gets mixed reviews.

Value comparisons with other semi-autos in the same price range are a regular discussion topic. The consensus is that it competes reasonably well on build and features, with the caveat about light-load cycling being the main reliability note prospective buyers should factor in.
