The CZ-USA 1012 G2 delivers reliable gas-operated cycling with enhanced ergonomics for waterfowl hunting and clay sports. This 12-gauge semi-automatic combines traditional walnut aesthetics with modern performance features that serious shooters demand.
What Makes This Different
The G2 generation introduces oversized controls and improved ergonomics over the original 1012 platform. The bronze anodized receiver provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard blued finishes, while the gas system cycles 2¾" and 3" shells reliably without adjustment. Five extended choke tubes offer versatility from cylinder bore to full constriction.
Key Features
- Gas-operated semi-automatic action cycles 2¾" and 3" 12-gauge shells
- 28" chrome-lined barrel with 3" chamber and ventilated rib
- Bronze anodized aluminum receiver with Grade II walnut stock and forend
- Oversized bolt release and safety for enhanced manipulation
- Five extended choke tubes (Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, Full)
- Weaver-style optics rail for red dot or scope mounting
- Fiber optic front bead sight for quick target acquisition
Field testing demonstrates consistent cycling across various loads from light target shells to heavy waterfowl magnums. The 28" barrel length provides excellent swing dynamics for crossing shots while maintaining pattern density at extended ranges. Weather-sealed action components resist moisture and debris during harsh hunting conditions.
