The Gold Reserve is Mossberg's dressed-up over/under — a break-action shotgun with engraved, gold-accented receiver work and walnut furniture, aimed at shooters who want the look of a traditional field gun at a working price. Over/unders remain the choice for clays and upland birds because the single sighting plane and instant choke selection between two barrels are hard to beat.

This Sporting model is a 28 gauge with 28-inch barrels. The 28 has a devoted following for good reason: it patterns beautifully out of proportion to its small payload, produces very little recoil, and makes a light, quick-handling gun for quail, dove and a full round of skeet without beating you up.
