FN SC-1 Over/Under Shotgun
FNH USA has announced their first over and under shotgun, the FN SC-1. The gun was designed for their competition team and they are producing just 200 guns of this model (with a second generation of the gun coming next year). The Belgium-made shotgun is essentially a Winchester Model 101 trap gun with a laminated stock and FN engraving (Winchester guns are manufactured by FN).
I really like the blue/gray stock, blue-colored FNH logo and the 'arrow' checkering. The Winchester Model 101 ranges in price from $1,800 to $2,600. I expect the FN SC-1 to sell for somewhere in the middle of that price range.

You can say there newer design but dead on accuracy goes with the Remingtons.
Disagree – the Beretta and Benelli actions are light years ahead of the 1100.
I like the looks of this gun. Too many of the sporting clays guns looks like Gramps old shotgun, with filigree engraving, gold duck inlays, etc. This has a classy, modern aesthetic.
Lance, who is shooting sporting clays with an 870 or 1100? You need an O/U to compete.
She’s a beauty all right. I’m wondering if the decision to produce 200 guns now is to do with the rules for competition akin to motor racing?
Something along the lines of the teams can only use a shotgun that is in current production and current production must be a minimum of 200 units?
When it comes to sporting shot guns I say I can beat any FN Beretta or Benelli with my trusty Remington 870 or 1100 any time any where.
Woah, that is a shotgun that is not to my taste at all (aesthetically). It makes the original Browning Cynergy look conservative by comparison.
To shoot that and not get a huge amount of ribbing at any of the competitions I go to you would have to be very good. Otherwise it would be open season.
