There's something timeless about a side-by-side, and the Iver Johnson IJ800 delivers that classic double-gun feel without a complicated price tag. It pairs twin 28" smooth bore barrels with a warm walnut stock and forend, finished off with a black barrel and black steel receiver for a look that's equal parts old-school and clean. Chambered for up to 3" 12 gauge shells and holding two rounds, it's built with field work in mind, whether you're walking fence rows for upland birds or spending a morning on clays.
Where a lot of classic doubles use two triggers, the IJ800 runs a single trigger with a selector switch, so one pull fires the first barrel and a second pull sends the next. The selector lets you choose which barrel goes first. Internal hammers keep the action clean and the lines smooth, and the gun uses extractors to lift your spent hulls up for easy removal. A gold-plated trigger adds a little character to an otherwise no-nonsense workhorse.
The IJ800 uses the Mobil choke system and ships with a set of removable tubes so you can tune your pattern to the job. You get Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Skeet tubes in the box, which covers tight patterns for longer shots all the way down to open spreads for close, fast birds. A bead front sight keeps target acquisition quick, and the tang safety sits right on top of the receiver behind the opening lever where your thumb naturally falls. At roughly 7.5 pounds and about 45.4" overall, it carries well and swings smoothly.
Ambidextrous handling makes the IJ800 friendly for righties and lefties alike, and the checkered walnut stock with recoil pad helps soak up the push of heavier field loads. Swivel studs are included if you want to run a sling. For anyone who appreciates the charm of a traditional double gun in a dependable, ready-to-hunt package, the IJ800 fits the bill.
The IJ800 uses a single trigger with a selector switch rather than the traditional two-trigger setup. One pull fires the first barrel, and after you release it, a second pull fires the other. The selector switch lets you pick which barrel goes off first.
It ships with a set of removable Mobil choke tubes covering Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Skeet. That range lets you tighten up your pattern for longer shots or open it up for close, fast-flushing birds. Swapping tubes is quick and tool-friendly.
Yes. The IJ800 is chambered for up to 3" 12 gauge shells, so it handles standard 2-3/4" field loads as well as heavier 3" magnum loads. That flexibility makes it versatile for everything from clays to upland and waterfowl work.
It is. The IJ800 features an ambidextrous design with the tang safety on top of the receiver, so it works comfortably whether you shoot right or left handed. The break-open action and top-mounted controls are naturally neutral for either hand.
