The New CZ Quail: Pheasants Forever’s Youth Gun of the Year

Kansas City, KS – CZ-USA built the new CZ Quail Over and Under shotgun at the request of Pheasants Forever (PF) – one of America’s premier conservation groups–and the Quail is PF’s 2019 Youth Gun of the Year.

Nearly identical to the popular CZ Drake, the CZ Quail is different in that it has a slightly shorter length of pull at 13 ¾-inches, making it more comfortable to carry and use for youth shooters and smaller-statured hunters. CZ-USA’s deletion on the midrib also trimmed off a noticeable amount of weight from the muzzle end of this O/U, so the shotgun is easier to shoulder and a bit quicker to swing on target.

The Quail also boasts a single trigger and selectable barrels. Read more

Kansas City, KS – Designed and made specifically for the competition shooter, CZ-USA’s new CZ All-American Single Trap shotgun resets the high bar for performance and value in a single-shot trap gun.

Competitive shooters can choose from a 30-, 32-, or 34-inch single barrel model.

The barrel on the All-American is ported with a lengthened forcing cone. To fine-tune the shotgun to the individual competitor, the length of pull is adjustable from 14 ½- to 15 ½-inches.

CZ-USA’s New Do-It-All CZ 1012 Shotgun

Kansas City, KS – Whether you are an upland or waterfowl hunter, or just like to break a few clays on the weekends, the CZ 1012 shotgun is your shotgun. With its new gas-less operating system the CZ 1012 is a workhorse that keeps running with minimal maintenance.

The CZ 1012 represents CZ-USA’s next evolution in their semi-auto shotgun line with the 1012’s gas-less spring bolt operating system. Instead of redirecting gas from the barrel to run the action, the 1012 uses a spring within the bolt to store energy during the shotgun’s recoil and expends this energy a split second later to rotate and unlock the twin lug bolt head from the barrel extension to withdraw the spent shell.

The major advantage of this gas-less system is a much less stringent maintenance schedule, unlike gas guns, which require periodic cleaning of the piston and magazine tube.

During extensive testing of this system by CZ engineers and designers, 5,000 shells were fired through several CZ 1012’s, without a drop of oil or cleaning of any sort being done. Results? Zero parts breakage or malfunctions. Try that with your standard gas-operated shotgun. Read more

Winchester Repeating Arms Adds 20 Gauge Models to the Super X4 Line

August 20, 2019— 20 gauge aficionados now have more options to select from with the introduction of several new Super X® 4 models from Winchester Repeating Arms.

Since its introduction in 2017, the Super X4 has rapidly become a favorite among shotgunners, and the new 20 gauge models are sure to be welcome additions to the line. Available in seven Composite, Compact and wood stocked models, the 20 gauges offer reductions in weight and recoil compared to their 12 gauge counterparts, to make them more appealing to smaller shooters, those sensitive to recoil or those who just want a lighter gun in the field.

Like the 12 gauge, the Super X4 20 gauge is gas operated and powered by the proven Active Valve Gas System that combines reliability, low felt recoil and record-setting cycling speed. An oversize bolt handle and bolt release button are both easy to manipulate with cold or gloved fingers. Speed Loading is a feature unique to Super X4 20 gauge models, sending the first shell loaded into the magazine directly to the chamber when the bolt is open. Super X4 20 gauge models tip the scales at approximately 6 ¼ – 6 ¾ pounds, depending on the model. Trim dimensions contribute to the lightweight feel of these fast handling shotguns. Read more
