#28GA

Welcome everyone to the 97th edition of ‘Hot Gat or Fudd Crap?’, one of our many series here on TFB. If you’re new to the series, this is where we look at the most obscure firearms that are actually for sale and ask the question – is this Gat a sweet deal or only has a Fudd appeal?  Each week the TFB staff weighs in with their thoughts, but readers get the final say in the poll at the bottom of each article.

What usually makes it difficult to write about rare and obscure firearms is the absence of any visual content (photos, videos etc.) of reasonable quality. If you write about any particular firearm or mechanism and have the description only or a couple of poor images that barely let to visualize the description text, it becomes not a too interesting read.

If you are of the select group of people that still loves a good 28-Gauge shotgun, there is some good news on the horizon. Federal is offering more 28-Gauge loads through their Game-Shok line of ammunition. What you shall soon be seeing available at brick ‘n mortar stores are loads in #5, #6 and #7.5 shot.
