The "Perfect Repeater" — widely considered the finest pump-action shotgun ever manufactured. An internal-hammer design that eliminated the external hammer of the Model 97. The machined steel receiver (not aluminum) gave it extraordinary durability and smooth operation. Used as the standard US military shotgun through WWII and Korea. Trap and target shooters dominated competitions with it for decades.
