The Retay ACE-R 28 gauge 26-inch Walnut shotgun (Retay USA part no. C-RACEWAL-26) is a semi-automatic 28 gauge in a walnut finish. Retay USA lists the weight at 5 lb 5 oz, with a 26-inch barrel and a 3-inch chamber. The magazine holds two shells plus one in the chamber, so a quick pair of shots is covered before a reload. It runs on the Inertia Plus action, a rotating-bolt inertia design without a gas piston to clean. A single fiber-optic bead gives a bright front sight, and the trigger group comes out at the push of a button. It is a classic-looking small-bore gun for dove, quail and grouse.
