SHOTGUN: SAVAGE ARMS MODEL STEVENS 9478, SERIAL NUMBER D431879, BLACK (MATTE), CASE NOT INCLUDED, SINGLE SHOT, 20 GAUGE, 26
Notes:
DO YOU WANT A SHOTGUN THAT MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE A DEPRESSION-ERA DUST BOWL FARMER DEFENDING A PRIZED PATCH OF TURNIPS? DO YOU WANT TO CHOOSE THE ULTIMATE ANTI-COMPLICATION MACHINE THAT CONTAINS LITERALLY THREE MOVING PARTS AND OPERATES ON PURE AMERICAN INGENUITY?
INTRODUCING THE SAVAGE ARMS STEVENS MODEL 9478 IN 20 GAUGE. THIS IS THE TRADITIONAL BREAK-ACTION, HAMMER-FIRED SINGLE-SHOT WORKHORSE. IT DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOUR HIGH-CAPACITY TACTICAL DRUM MAGAZINES. IT CARES ABOUT GOING BANG EXACTLY ONCE, EJECTING THE CASING DIRECTLY INTO YOUR FOREHEAD IF YOU OPEN IT TOO FAST, AND DOING IT ALL FOR LESS THAN A MODERATELY PRICED PAIR OF WORK BOOTS.
THE GOOD STUFF:
* THE 20 GAUGE SWEET SPOT: ALL THE COMFORTABLE VARMINT PUNCHING POWER OF A 12 GAUGE BUT WITH SIGNIFICANTLY LESS CHIROPRACTOR BILLS ATTACHED.
* INNOVATIVE BARREL RELEASE: UNLIKE OLDER SINGLE SHOTS WHERE YOU SPRAIN A THUMB TOGGLING A TOP LEVER, THIS HAS A RELEASE BUTTON CONVENIENTLY LOCATED RIGHT IN THE TRIGGER GUARD. IT FEELS AMAZINGLY FLUID TO POP OPEN.
* THE ULTIMATE TRAINING TOOL: IDEAL FOR TEACHING REASONABLE SHOOTING DISCIPLINE, BECAUSE IF THE SHOOTER MISSES THE SQUIRREL, THE SQUIRREL HAS PLENTY OF TIME TO GROW OLD, RAISE A FAMILY, AND RETIRE BEFORE THIS PISTON IS RELOADED.
THE HONEST STUFF:
* NO ORIGINAL BOX: CARDBOARD FROM THE REAGAN ADMINISTRATION GENERALLY DISINTEGRATES INTO DUST ANYWAY. WE ARE SECURELY WRAPPING THIS WOOD-AND-STEEL ARTIFACT IN INDUSTRIAL BUBBLE WRAP COMFORT.
* LIGHT WEAR WITH A BROKEN TRIGGER GUARD: IT HAS AN AUTHENTIC TRAIL PATINA ON THE HARDWOOD AND METAL. AND YES, THE CRITICALLY INFAMOUS FACTORY PLASTIC TRIGGER GUARD HAS MET ITS INEVITABLE DESTINY AND HAS SPLIT RIGHT BY THE RELEASE BUTTON. IT STILL FIRES FLUIDLY, BUT IT NOW FEATURES "TACTICAL GLOVE ACCESSIBILITY" OR AN EXCELLENT WEEKEND PROJECT TO RESOLVE VIA AN EL CHEAPO REPLACEMENT PART ON EBAY.
THIS IS A RUGGED, BARE-BONES TRUCK GUN THAT REFUSES TO QUIET DOWN. SECURE IT TODAY!

Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction. And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process. We get the FFL from your store – others make you find it, copy it, and fax it. We have a generous return policy, and handle everything – you don’t have to go back to the store. And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process. We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.
Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community. Instead of buying a gun that’s on your local store’s shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state. At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible. That way, we’re helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY – it’s how business should be done.
Most everything can be easily bought online these days. But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated. Most websites are poorly organized, don’t tell you a lot about what you’re buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want. Guns.com is built to be simple – easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice. Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
