Description

The Iver Johnson Arms IJ800-28 Full Size 12 Gauge Break Open Side By Side Shotgun is a classic break-action platform delivering proven reliability for upland hunting, sport shooting, and field use. This double-barrel 12 gauge features a 3-inch chamber with 2-shot capacity, enabling flexible ammunition selection and straightforward operation in demanding field conditions. The 28-inch black side-by-side barrels provide balanced weight distribution and effective shot pattern control at practical hunting ranges, while the black steel receiver offers corrosion resistance necessary for extended field exposure.

Weighing 9.28 pounds, this full-size shotgun delivers the mass required for effective recoil management when firing 3-inch magnum loads. The fixed walnut wood stock provides a traditional grip interface and maintains the durability expected from hardwood furniture in weather-exposed environments. Ambidextrous operation accommodates both right- and left-handed shooters without requiring aftermarket modifications, a practical consideration for shared equipment or training environments. The break-open action design simplifies field maintenance and allows fast barrel switching without specialized tools, core attributes of traditional double-barrel shotgun design.

This platform serves waterfowl hunters, upland game shooters, and sport clays competitors who value straightforward mechanical operation and proven downrange performance. The side-by-side configuration offers natural sight picture alignment and allows shooters to select either barrel independently, accommodating different shot sizes or load preferences within a single shot sequence. Users operating in salt-air environments or high-humidity conditions benefit from the steel receiver's corrosion properties relative to lighter materials, though standard maintenance protocols apply to all ferrous surfaces.

Double-barrel shotguns remain the standard platform for many hunting traditions and remain prevalent in international sport shooting disciplines. The IJ800-28's 28-inch barrel length sits within the versatile mid-range for hunting applications, balancing velocity delivery with field handling. This shotgun is a direct-action firearm requiring manual operation between shots and intentional trigger press per discharge—a mechanical simplicity that translates to reliable function across temperature extremes and ammunition variability where semi-automatic designs require more stringent maintenance.
