Overview
The Escort WS is a pump-action sporting shotgun dressed in Turkish walnut, aimed at hunters who prefer a classic-looking field gun over synthetic. Available in 12 and 20 gauge with a 3-inch chamber, it carries a 28-inch oxidation-resistant chrome-plated barrel with a 7mm ventilated anti-glare rib and fiber-optic front sight on an aircraft-alloy receiver. The checkered walnut stock comes with three length-of-pull spacers and adjustment shims for drop and cast, and a magazine cut-off allows single-shot loading.
