The long and the short of it. The SX4 Compact is very long on features. You get all the new SX4 functional and egonomic advantages . . . all in a slightly more compact version that is ideal for shorter, smaller, lighter shooters. The inch and a quarter off the stock allows a more natural mounting of the pad to the shoulder. and bringing the hands (and balance) slightly rearward makes it easer to point and especially to hold it to shoulder until you get the shot off. Featuers do not end there. The TruGlo fiber optic sight is a huge aid for aquiring fast targets and ensuring you stay in perfect alignment, as it "keep your head down." The recoil pad utilizing Inflex Technology takes the punch out of the recoil by pulling your head down, away from the comb when you shoot, and the special design sucks up recoil headed to your shoulder. All in all we think it is the ideal smaller person autoloading shotgun.
Walnut offers a lifetime of enjoyment. The look of select walnut is purely classic. Not just because if looks great, but because the weight distrituion of a walnut stock is practically perfect. Balance is between the hands and the feel on a cold day is superb.

12 gauge is the most popular and useful shotgun gauges ever made. Suitable for everything from doves to geese. With sporting, military and law enforcement applications. Available in 2 ¾”, 3” and 3 ½”. The magnum lengths are generally preferred for waterfowl and turkey. Most major manufacturers produce guns and ammunition in a very wide septum for 12 gauge. Loads from ¾ oz. to 2 oz. are common with 1 1/8 oz Low base and 1 ¼ oz being the most common loadings. Target loads are normally around 1150 to 1200 FPS with High velocity lead loads tuning up 1350 FPS. Steel waterfowl loads tend to be loaded faster around 1500 FPS to compensate lower density shot. While the 2 ¾” loading is still the most popular ammunition made, nearly all current production guns have 3”or 3 ½” chambers. The shorter ammunition can be safely fired in longer chambers, but not all magnum semiautomatics will function with shorter shotshells. — Craig Boddington
