The Retay Gordion 20 Gauge 26" Onyx Semi-Automatic Shotgun is a lightweight, fast-handling inertia-driven shotgun built for upland hunters and sport shooters who value recoil management and quick target transitions. With a 20 gauge bore and 3-inch chamber, the Gordion cycles everything from light target loads to full-power hunting rounds reliably, thanks to its inertia piston action paired with an inertia-plus rotating bolt system. At 6 pounds 10 ounces, it's easy to carry through brush and over hills without fatigue—a real advantage during a full day afield.
Ergonomics and adjustability set the Gordion apart in its class. The adjustable shim set lets you dial in drop and cast to fit your natural gun mount, while the sculpted microcell recoil pad absorbs punishment and keeps your shoulder comfortable. Cross-bolt push-button safety and an automatic anti-repeat trigger system put reliable controls exactly where you need them. The single-piece polished black anodized aluminum receiver is both durable and lightweight, and the milled trigger guard and housing are built to last through seasons of use.
The 26-inch barrel is drilled from Böhler steel with chrome lining, paired with Retay's MaraBarrel optimized forcing cone geometry to pattern shot efficiently and handle the recommended minimum load of 3 dram equivalent with 1-1/8 ounces of shot. Five interchangeable MaraPro chokes—cylinder, improved cylinder, modified, improved modified, and full—let you tailor your pattern to the game and distance you're hunting. A red fiber optic front sight aids target acquisition in low light, and integrated sling swivel mounts and adapter keep you equipped for a long walk.
Whether you're stepping into semi-automatic shotguns or upgrading from a pump gun, the Gordion delivers genuine usability: quick to point, gentle on recoil, easy to maintain, and versatile across upland birds, light waterfowl, and clay games.
