What does over/under shotgun mean?
An over-under shotgun is a double-barreled, break action shotgun. Where most double-barreled shotguns have the barrels placed side by side, this shotgun has one placed on top of the other. The specific features will vary based on gauge. Common gauges are 20 gauge, 28 gauge, and 12 gauge.
When was the first over and under shotgun made?
The first guns to stand nose-to-nose with Browning’s design came from Italy and a gunmaker few Americans knew a thing about. Beretta created their first O/U in 1933.
Is side by side better than over under?
Barrels of a side-by sit higher up while the stacked nature of an over/under positions them deeper into the stock. The O/U’s first barrel recoil is low in the shoulder and produces less barrel flip than a side-by. Second shots can be more accurate, which is why clay target competitions are won by over/under shooters.
What is the effective range of a 12-gauge shotgun?
Depending on the choke, buckshot loads in a 12-gauge shotgun can be effective against a human adversary out to 60 or 70 meters. However, in a cylinder-bore shotgun, the effective range of, for example, #00 buckshot is 40–50 meters. Beyond that range, the pattern is so wide that a reliable hit is not guaranteed.
Do double barrels have two triggers?
