CZ-USA Upland Ultralight Green 20 Gauge OverUnder Shotgun, 28" Matte Black Chrome Barrel, 5 Choke Tube Set, Turkish Walnut With Pistol Grip Stock Md: 06481
Adding a bit of character to our workhorse bird gun, the Upland Ultralight Green gets a splash of color in its anodized green receiver. All the same great features of the Upland Ultralight, including 5 interchangeable chokes, laser-cut checkering and mid-rib delete. The big news is that this green variant is chambered in 12 or 20 gauge, meaning that the 20 gauge will tip the scales at a mere 5.8 lbs.
The Upland Ultralight operates with clockwork precision and consistency due to CNC-cut aluminum alloy frame, allowing the inner mechancial parts to work flawlessly. On the exterior the most noticable differing characteristic is the lack of a mid-rib between the barrels.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 20-gauge follows the 12-gauge as America's second-most popular shotgun gauge. And, with modern shotshells, continues to gain ground. The 20-gauge has a bore diameter of .615-inch, with modern shells in either 2 3/4 "standard" or 3-inch "magnum" length. Most modern shotguns are chambered to handle both. Payloads vary from light-recoiling 5/8-ounce loads all the way to heavy turkey loads carrying 1 5/16 ounces of shot. Standard 2 3/4" loads for targets and upland birds are normally 7/8 or one ounce. At its very best the 20-gauge does not have the capability of a 12-gauge...but with modern shot, wad columns, and chokes it doesn't give up much, and it can be built into a much lighter shotgun developing less recoil. Virtually all manufacturers offer 20-gauge guns, and they are available in all action types and for virtually all shotgunning sports. The 20-gauge joins the 12, 28, and .410 as one of four events in skeet competition, and is becoming increasingly popular for sporting clays.
