It’s official: Remington is now shipping the V3. I covered this last year in a review you guys can see at https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2014/12/31/review-new-2015-remington-v3-shotgun/ (yes, Phil’s name is on it but as you can see by the note at the bottom of the review, it was actually written by yours truly).

In case you need a refresher, the V3 is a 12-gauge shotgun that features Remington’s Versaport system. It’s a semi-auto available with a 26″ or 28″ barrel and your choice of various finishes: Walnut, Black Synthetic, Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blades, and Real Tree APG. Both Phil and I enjoyed shooting the V3 and found it to be an accurate shotgun. It’s a nice addition to Remington’s lineup especially considering that this year is their 200th anniversary.
