The 28″ barrel length is a versatile choice, providing enough sight radius for clays while remaining manageable in a blind or field.

It ships to Missouri and compliant US states, ready for your local FFL to complete the transfer.
Who This Shotgun Is For
This shotgun is built for the budget-conscious hunter or recreational shooter who wants the reliability of an over/under without the four-figure investment. It’s ideal for someone breaking into clays, hunting upland game or waterfowl (with steel shot), or simply wanting a durable, straightforward shotgun for the cabinet. If you appreciate the classic lines of a walnut-stocked double gun but need to watch your wallet, this is your candidate. Think of it as a tool, not a trophy—and a surprisingly capable one at that.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The primary advantage is undeniable value. You get a classic over/under configuration for hundreds less than many competitors. The Turkish walnut stock offers better aesthetics than synthetic at this price, and the 28″ barrel is a proven, do-it-all length. The manual action is inherently simple and reliable, with minimal maintenance needs.
Cons: Trade-offs exist. Fit and finish won’t match a Beretta or Browning. The trigger may be heavier and less crisp. Resale value is lower, and long-term durability under extremely high round counts may not equal premium brands. It’s a basic model, so don’t expect fancy engraving or adjustable combs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What chokes does it come with?
A: It typically includes a set of flush-mounted choke tubes (often Modified and Full). We strongly recommend confirming the exact inclusions with your receiving FFL before completing the transfer, as packaging can vary.
Q: Is it suitable for a beginner?
A: Absolutely. The over/under action is one of the simplest and safest to learn. Its manual operation forces a slower, more deliberate pace which is great for building fundamentals. Just be prepared for its weight—it’s solid, which helps with recoil but can be tiring to carry all day for a new shooter.
Q: Can I use it for trap or skeet?
A: Yes, it’s a serviceable entry-level gun for both sports. The 28″ barrel is a common starting point. For trap, you might want a tighter choke; for skeet, more open ones. You can purchase aftermarket choke tubes from brands like Carlson’s or Trulock that are compatible with its thread pattern to fine-tune your setup.
For a classic over/under experience that prioritizes function and value, the T R Imports Silver Eagle presents a compelling case. It delivers core performance where it counts, leaving budget for shells and range time. This shotgun is available at firearms-missouri.com for Missouri residents and nationwide.
