The Retay Ace 28 Gauge Shotgun with a 28-inch barrel and a Black Synthetic Matte finish is a light inertia-driven semi-auto for small-gauge shooters (Retay part no. C-ACEBLK-28). Retay USA lists the 28 gauge Ace at just 5 pounds 5 ounces, which makes it comfortable to carry on a long day afield. The Inertia Plus rotating bolt, a factory-lengthened forcing cone and an AIRY recoil pad round out the package. A push-button trigger group can be removed for cleaning, and a single fiber optic bead sits at the muzzle. The 28-inch barrel gives a long sight radius.
