Remington's
New V3 Autoloader: The Best Ever?
This autoloading
shotgun has been in development for the last three years or so. Remington
feels that their new V3 shotgun is America's return to shotgun greatness,
with the best reliability of any autoloading shotgun: at least 10 percent
or so more reliable than its closest competitor.
Designed from the
beginning to be a 3 inch chambered 12 gauge, it has an extremely compact
receiver, requires less maintenance than any other gas autoloading shotgun,
shaves off a good three quarters of a pound from the 11-87, weighing in
at 7 lbs., 2 oz.: less than the Beretta 390 / 3901, Beretta 391 Urika
II, Beretta A300, with significantly less recoil than all of them: similar
recoil to the pillow-soft shooting Versa Max.
American designed
and American built, the V3 is also extremely affordable. Remington feels
the V3 is the future of
autoloading shotguns, blending Remington’s legendary pointability
with enhanced reliability of the VersaPort Gas System.
