Also known as: Escort PS Magnum
Overview
The Escort PS is the gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun that anchors Escort's value-priced field lineup. Its self-regulating SMART Valve Piston cycles everything from light 7/8 oz target loads to heavy 2 oz magnum payloads without any manual adjustment, and the FAST Loading System speeds up topping off the tube. Offered in 12-gauge, 20-gauge, and .410 bore with a 28-inch chrome-plated barrel, an anodized aircraft-alloy receiver, and a synthetic stock with adjustment shims, it ships with a five-tube choke set and a brass bead front sight on an 11mm grooved receiver for optics.
