The Escort PS 20 gauge is proof that a hardworking hunting shotgun doesn't need to cost a fortune. Built by Hatsan, this semi-auto runs a self-regulating gas system the company calls the SMART Valve Piston, and it earns its keep by cycling everything from 7/8 ounce field loads up to heavy 3 inch magnums without any adjustments on your end. That kind of flexibility matters when you're shooting light target loads at the range one weekend and stuffing the tube with steel for ducks the next.
The 28 inch chrome-plated barrel wears a ventilated, anti-glare rib with a brass bead up front, and it's rated for both shot and slugs. Five choke tubes come in the box (Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Cylinder), so you can tighten up for late-season geese or open things up for quail over dogs. The aircraft alloy receiver keeps weight down around 6.2 pounds, which your shoulder will appreciate on long walks, and it's cut with an 11mm groove if you ever want to add an optic.
The synthetic stock and forend are dipped in Realtree Max-5, a pattern that disappears in marsh grass and flooded timber. Included shims let you adjust drop and cast to match your build, and spacers under the rubber butt pad extend the length of pull. Checkered grip surfaces keep things secure with cold or wet hands, and sling studs come already mounted.
Hatsan's FAST Loading System lets you top off the 4+1 tube magazine with one hand without breaking your mount, and the loading switch doubles as the bolt release. A migratory plug is included to drop capacity to 2+1 for waterfowl work, and a magazine cut-off lets you swap in a single shell when the situation calls for it. For a soft-shooting 20 gauge that's set up for real hunting from day one, this one covers a lot of ground.
It handles both. The self-regulating SMART Valve Piston gas system cycles loads from 7/8 ounce up to 2 ounce magnums in 2.75 inch and 3 inch shells without any adjustment. You can even mix light and heavy shells in the magazine and it will keep running.
Yes, the multi-choke system is rated for steel shot, and the migratory plug included in the box drops capacity to 2+1 for duck and goose hunting. The chrome-plated barrel also resists the corrosion that comes with wet marsh conditions.
The aluminum alloy receiver has an 11mm dovetail groove machined into it, so you can add a compatible optic mount for a red dot or shotgun scope. Out of the box it comes with a brass bead front sight on a ventilated anti-glare rib, which works great for wingshooting.
Yes, and that's one of its better features at this price point. Included shims let you adjust the drop and cast of the stock to match how the gun mounts to your shoulder and cheek, and spacers behind the rubber butt pad let you lengthen the pull. It's worth taking the time to dial it in, since a proper fit makes a real difference on crossing birds.
