The Remington 1816 Precision Shotgun is a purpose-built 20-gauge break-action designed for hunters and sport shooters who value craftsmanship and reliable performance in the field. With a 3" chamber and 2-round capacity, this shotgun handles modern ammunition while keeping the action straightforward and dependable. The 28" barrel and walnut furniture give it classic lines that wear well over years of use, and the manual safety selector puts control firmly in your hands.
What sets the 1816 apart is the attention to detail in its construction. The Prince of Wales straight-cast stock and splinter forend are hand-checkered at 24 lines per inch—a traditional mark of quality that improves grip in wet conditions. The hand-rubbed oil finish on the walnut develops character as you hunt, and the fitted recoil pad absorbs impact without looking like an afterthought. The color case-hardened receiver is both functional and visually distinctive, with engraving that reflects Remington's heritage in precision firearms.
On the range or in the blind, the single gold trigger breaks cleanly, and the ejectors clear empties efficiently. The front brass bead sight gives you a reliable aiming point without complicated electronics. Remington backs this shotgun with five thin-wall chokes—Skeet, Improved Cylinder, Light Modified, Modified, and Full—so you can dial in patterns for different game and distances. The included carrying case protects your investment during transport.
If you hunt upland game, clay targets, or waterfowl and appreciate a shotgun built to last generations, the 1816 Precision rewards careful shooting with honest, straightforward performance.
