The Weatherby 18i Waterfowler shotgun in 12 gauge with a 28-inch barrel and First Lite Cipher camo finish (brand part no. IFC1228MAG) runs a field-proven inertia recoil system for reliable cycling across a range of loads, giving waterfowl hunters a rugged, evenly weighted autoloader. Weatherby machines the single-piece receiver from billet aluminum and pairs it with a shim-adjustable polymer stock featuring a soft-touch cheek rest and textured grip panels, all finished in First Lite Cipher camo that extends across the metalwork. The shotgun accepts a 3-inch chamber, feeds a 4+1 capacity magazine (2+1 with the included limiting plug), and ships with five Crio Plus chokes (cylinder, improved cylinder, modified, improved modified, full) in a storage case with a choke wrench. A full-length ventilated rib and a high-visibility LPA fiber front sight speed up target acquisition in low light. Among semi-auto semi-auto shotguns, the 18i Waterfowler favors duck and goose hunters who want a full camo-finished inertia gun.
