The Hatfield Gun Company USA20C SAS delivers reliable semi-automatic performance in a versatile 20-gauge platform designed for waterfowl hunting. This gas-operated shotgun handles 3-inch magnum shells with consistent cycling while maintaining the lighter recoil characteristics that make 20-gauge firearms appealing to hunters of all experience levels.
What Makes This Different
The USA20C SAS features a gas-operated action that cycles both 2¾-inch and 3-inch shells reliably, eliminating the feeding issues common in budget semi-automatics. The 28-inch barrel provides optimal velocity for waterfowl loads while the 4+1 capacity offers quick follow-up shots. Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blades camouflage breaks up the gun's outline in marsh environments where traditional patterns fall short.
Key Features
- Gas-operated semi-automatic action handles 2¾" and 3" 20-gauge shells
- 28-inch barrel optimized for waterfowl hunting with extended range capability

- Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blades camouflage pattern for wetland concealment

Field performance centers on the gun's ability to cycle various shell weights without adjustment, from light target loads to heavy waterfowl magnums. The 28-inch barrel generates sufficient velocity for effective patterns at extended ranges while the synthetic furniture maintains zero shift in temperature extremes. Hunters report consistent function in muddy, wet conditions where other semi-automatics struggle.
