The Iver Johnson 700 Youth 20 Gauge is a single shot with a youth-size walnut stock and an 18-inch barrel, built to fit a young hunter (Iver Johnson part no. IJ70020-18Y). Iver Johnson gives it a hinged action that folds in half for easy transport and storage. The black chrome matte receiver and barrel, checkered walnut stock and smooth forend give it a traditional look. A single extractor pulls the fired shell out, and an internal firing pin rest keeps the hammer off the firing pin when it is uncocked.
