The Best Shotguns for Waterfowl Hunting

By

With waterfowl season on the horizon, countless hunters begin to plan, organize, and daydream. Decoys, calls, a good hide, and the other essentials of waterfowl hunting certainly all have their place. But undoubtedly, the essential tool of the season is the shotgun. With so many excellent examples of the fowling scattergun out there, sometimes hunters can experience a bit of choice paralysis. While there is not likely to be a perfect answer for anything, thankfully, the choice between a Beretta A300 and a classic Browning Superposed is a win-win. Picking any of the following shotguns should prove an excellent choice.

Benelli M4
 Beretta A300/A400

The Beretta A300 and A400 shotguns are gas-operated members of the same family, though not exactly siblings, and both accurate and reliable choices. The Beretta A300 stands out for being tough and durable, while impressively light. Its Mobilchoke barrel and easy breakdown make it more attractive still. The Beretta A400 is another example of Beretta’s legendary legacy of quality and innovation. Its lightning-fast firing speed, brilliant follow-up, and advanced recoil reduction make it an excellent choice for both seasoned waterfowl veterans and newcomers.

Benelli Super Black Eagle 3

The Benelli Super Black Eagle 3 is an impressive combination of rock-solid and pleasant to fire. It is an incredibly rugged shotgun. Waterfowl season often involves some combination of water, mud, snow, and ice, meaning a fowling gun has to be tough. This Benelli is. In addition to that toughness, it is an ergonomically-optimized piece as well. And like the Beretta A400, the Benelli Super Black Eagle 3 has incorporated recoil-reduction technology that softens that kick impressively.

Remington 870

The Remington 870 is often considered to simply be the best pound-for-pound fowling shotgun ever created, but it can also be a love it or hate it gun. The Remington 870 is commonly written about, although many people seem to prefer more modern firearms. On the other hand, the availability and reliability of the Remington 870, coupled with the huge market for aftermarket parts, make it a favorite to this day.

Browning Superposed

For those of you who are suckers for the classics, it does not get much more classic than the Browning Superposed. The Browning Superposed is one of the most elegant, beautiful shotguns ever designed; no small wonder, with the Browning name attached. It set the standard for classy over/under fowling pieces and deserves a place in any hunter’s collection to this day. For a less pretty but no less classic, reliable, and accurate Browning, the legendary Browning A5 is worth a gander as well.

When you are headed to the range, there are some pieces of tactical gear you will want to bring with you. They will all help with convenience, allowing you to carry more or keep your firearms close at hand.

It’s the rare fan of firearms who doesn’t appreciate having at least one conversation piece in their collection. That can be a family heirloom, a homemade build, or a favorite shooter. However, a home-run option for a gun people will talk about is gifting your favorite gun enthusiast a high-quality but distinctive firearm. That could be an antique or vintage model, like a Dreyse M1907, or something new and unique, like the Kel Tec KSG . Give them something to talk about with one of the following distinctive gun gifts. 50 Beowulf Dreyse M1907 The Dreyse is a unique and certainly distinctive looking early automatic. Superficially, it looks quite a bit like the first ever mass-produced automatic, the FN 1900, and shares its chambering—32 ACP. However, the Dreyse features several distinct internal differences. Because this antique firearm tends to be overshadowed by the famous FN 1900, you can often find them relatively inexpensively. Despite their usually modest price, they have a reput

Whether you are going hunting with your Beretta A300 Outlander or taking a highly specialized AR 15 to an out-of-state competition, flying with a firearm might seem complex if you have never done it before. However, there are ways you can streamline the process to make it as simple as possible. This means you will not have to arrive at the airport too much earlier than you would for a typical flight. Here are five tips you should know about packing and declaring your firearm for your next flight. Use the Right Kind of Lock First, you will need the right kind of lock. Do not use any standard, TSA-approved lock to keep your firearms safe. Instead, use a heavy-duty lock on your case. Always keep a key on your person, but do not bring extra copies in your checked luggage. Otherwise, if you use a TSA-approved lock or have copies of the key, it is entirely possible that your gun case could be empty when you grab it off the carousel at your destination. What to Do with Ammo Most often, a
