Description
There's a reason the Green Wing keeps showing up in conversations about the best value over unders on the market. Dickinson built this 12 gauge in Turkey with the kind of features you'd expect to pay a lot more for: automatic ejectors, a Turkish walnut stock and forend with crisp 22 lines-per-inch checkering, and a steel receiver dressed up with full coverage scroll engraving featuring a waterfowl scene. This version wears a matte black metal finish that keeps glare down in the blind and cleans up easy after a wet morning.
Why the Green Wing Handles So Well
At around 6.8 pounds with 26-inch vent rib barrels, this gun comes to the shoulder quick and swings smooth without feeling whippy. That balance is a big part of why the Green Wing has earned a reputation as a confidence builder for newer wing shooters while still keeping experienced hands happy. The 3-inch chambers give you room to run heavier waterfowl loads, and the brass bead up front keeps your eye where it belongs, out on the bird or the clay.
Smart Controls and Real Versatility
The tang safety doubles as the barrel selector, and Dickinson ditched the tiny O and U markings in favor of simple red and white dots, so there's no squinting to figure out which barrel fires first. A single trigger keeps things straightforward, and the mechanical setup lets you switch barrels whether the safety is on or off. The barrels are threaded for the MobilChoke pattern, and the gun ships with five tubes covering everything from cylinder to full. That means one gun can handle early season doves over a waterhole, tight-flushing quail, and long pass shots on ducks without missing a beat.
What You Get with the Dickinson GW12B26P
Break action guns like this one are about as simple and reliable as shotguns get, with easy loading, easy cleaning, and nothing extra to fuss with. If you've been wanting a proper double gun without a custom-shop budget, the Green Wing is one of the easiest recommendations we can make.

Frequently Asked Questions
What choke tubes come with the Dickinson Green Wing?
It ships with five screw-in tubes: Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Cylinder, plus a flat wrench and a small storage box. The barrels use the common Mobil-style thread pattern, so aftermarket options from major choke makers are widely available. That spread of constrictions covers everything from skeet distances to late season ducks.
Does the Green Wing GW12B26P have ejectors or extractors?
This model has automatic ejectors, which kick fired hulls clear when you break the action open so you can reload fast. Unfired shells are simply lifted for easy removal by hand. Ejectors are a feature usually reserved for pricier doubles, so it's a nice touch at this level.
How does the barrel selector work on this shotgun?
The selector is built into the tang safety and uses red and white dots instead of the usual tiny O and U markings, so it's easy to see which barrel fires first at a glance. The red dot shows the selected barrel. You can switch barrels whether the safety is engaged or not.
Is the Dickinson Green Wing a good gun for hunting and clays?
Yes, it's a genuine do-it-all double. The 26-inch barrels and roughly 6.8 pound weight make it quick handling in upland cover, while the 3-inch chambers and full choke set let it pull duty in the duck blind or on the sporting clays course. It's well balanced and easy to shoot, which makes it a solid pick for newer wing shooters too.
