Customer Reviews for Mossberg & Sons SA-20 All Purpose Field Black 28" 20 Gauge Shotgun

Everything came as described. I have only shot it 100 rounds, but no hiccups whatsoever. It balances nicely and feels like an "adult" gun. If you are a fan of the beretta semi-autos, you will likely appreciate this firearm. It may be the best deal going for semi 20s and it is supported by Mossberg, so if you ever have any future problems, they will have you covered.

Gun was as represented. Functioned with any load I used. Only drawback was 6 pound plus trigger. Bud's delivered as promised.

This is a wonderful shotgun which is much better than I expected. I had previously sold my Browning 20 gauge and then found a case and a half of 20 gauge shells. Rather than try to sell the shells I decided to buy a less expensive 20 gauge, but used ones were dinged and scratched. I reviewed the website of the manufacturer in Turkey, Armsan.com, and they make some beautiful guns. This gun is not as fancy as their wood stocked versions, but the components are well made. This gun is tight, well made, and shoots 2 3/4 and 3 inch shells. I have shot just over 300 shells at the skeet range and this gun has cycled everything just perfectly. It comes with 5 choke tubes with a little box holding 4 and a choke wrench ranging from skeet to full. The skeet tube patterned a little too open but the improved cylinder tube tightened it up enough for me to really have some fun. Wanting to test this little thing, I have not cleaned it at all and with over 300 rounds it cycles smoothly and perfectly. The workmanship is excellent and is every bit as good as black synthetic stocked guns costing twice as much. If you have to have one a little better polished on the inside and need a better name, by all means spend the extra money to be happy. But, if you want to keep some extra money, you can get a great gun for this price. I would rate this as quite probably the best bargain that you can get in a 20 gauge shotgun.

Great gun. I own a Beretta A400 Xplor Light, Benelli M4, Mossberg 930 and I wanted a cheap 20 GA shoot-a-matic for new shooters and or women. I did some research and found this little gem. It's LIGHT, only 6lbs. with light felt recoil. I cleaned and lubed it properly before my first outing. Beware, the owners manual on page 5 states: this gun is designed to be used with 2 3/4" (15/16oz) loads. I've never even seen 15/16oz 20 GA loads. (Must be a European thing). Anyways, I put 110 rounds of Remington Gun Club Target Loads (yellow shells) 2 3/4" 7/8oz 2 1/2 Dram 1200 FPS and Remington Game Load 2 3/4" 7/8oz 2 1/2 Dram 1225 FPS both 8 and 9 shot and the gun performed flawlessly. No fail to fires, No fail eject, No fail to load. It throws the empty's pretty far too. Clean up was a breeze. The gas system and piston set up is a piece of cake to clean and mess with. I think it's because the guts are extremely similar to a fine 500 year old Italian gun maker, *wink, wink* Overall this thing is a winner.

Gun is light as I expected it, but has serious mechanic problem. Two miss fires happened in around 300rds when release the bolt to chamber a new round, upon inspecting the cycled shells, the primer cap on each one had been struck by the firing pin. This makes me distrust the quality of Turkish made Mossberg anymore.
