Mossberg Maverick SA Shotgun 12 ga 3" Chamber 5rd Capacity 28" Barrel Black

The Mossberg Maverick SA 12 gauge semi-auto shotgun is a reliable, no-nonsense workhorse built for hunters and sport shooters who demand versatility without the premium price tag. With a 3-inch chamber, 5-round capacity, and 28-inch vent-rib barrel, this gas-operated shotgun handles everything from upland game to clay courses. The adjustable synthetic stock lets you dial in your ideal length of pull—crucial for comfort and consistent mounting—while the included Sport Set of five interchangeable chokes gives you the flexibility to adapt to different hunting situations and distances without buying separate barrels.

Built on Mossberg's proven semi-auto platform, the Maverick SA features a quick-empty bolt release button for fast unloading, a front fiber-optic sight for quick target acquisition, and a cross-bolt safety you can operate instinctively. The matte-blue barrel and black synthetic furniture resist corrosion and won't reflect light in the field. At 6 pounds, it's light enough to carry all day without fatigue—whether you're working through a creek bottom or posted up on a point. This is the kind of shotgun that shoots straight, runs reliably, and won't make you flinch at the thought of scuffing the finish.

If you're looking for a versatile 12-gauge that covers hunting and shooting sports equally well, the Maverick SA delivers function and dependability in a straightforward package. No chrome, no frills, no excuses.
