The Retay USA Gordion Rifled Slug is a 12 gauge semi-auto shotgun (Retay part no. GORSLDNA24) built specifically for deer hunters running sabot slugs rather than shot. Its 24-inch barrel is deep-bore drilled and rifled with a lengthened forcing cone for slug accuracy, and the rib carries an integrated cantilevered Picatinny rail so a scope sits directly over the bore. An inertia-driven semi-automatic action cycles slug loads cleanly without tapping gas from the barrel, and adjustable iron rifle sights back up the scope for aiming without glass. The aluminum-alloy lower receiver keeps overall weight to roughly 7.4 lbs, light for a dedicated slug gun.
