There's something about a nickel shotgun that just looks right. The GForce Arms GF1 in 18.5 inch trim pairs a nickel-finished steel barrel with a matching dovetail aluminum receiver and black synthetic furniture, giving you a semi-auto that's as easy on the eyes as it is on the shoulder. Underneath the shine is a straightforward gas-operated action feeding from a tube magazine, with a 3 inch chamber and 4+1 capacity that handles everything from light target loads to full-power buckshot.
At 18.5 inches, this barrel keeps the whole gun right around 41 inches overall and roughly 7 pounds, so it swings fast in tight spaces and stores easily in a safe or behind a truck seat. The simple front bead gets you on target quickly, and the crossbolt safety sits right where your trigger finger expects it. The dovetail cut on the receiver gives you a mounting option if you decide to add an optic down the road. GForce also tosses a Raptor-style pistol grip in the box, so you can swap off the full stock and run it in a more compact configuration whenever the mood strikes.
You get three choke tubes with this one, Cylinder, Modified, and Full, which is a nice touch on a short-barreled gun. Run Cylinder for defensive loads, screw in Modified or Full and this thing pulls double duty on clays or close-cover bird hunts. Like most budget gas guns, the GF1 appreciates a proper break-in, and the manufacturer recommends feeding it stouter loads of 1400 FPS or faster for the first 150 rounds or so. Give it that courtesy and keep it reasonably clean, and you've got a whole lot of semi-auto shotgun for the money. For anyone wanting a do-a-little-of-everything 12 gauge with some personality, this nickel GF1 is tough to argue with.
Yes, and it makes a real difference with budget-friendly gas guns like this. GForce recommends running loads with velocities of 1400 FPS or higher for at least the first 150 rounds. Once the action wears in, it tends to cycle a wider range of ammo much more reliably.
It can. The GF1 has a 3 inch chamber, so it handles both 2-3/4 inch and 3 inch 12 gauge shells. During break-in, stick with stouter loads to help the gas system cycle consistently before moving to lighter target ammo.
Yes, this model ships with three chokes: Cylinder, Modified, and Full. That gives you a lot of flexibility for a short-barreled gun, letting you pattern defensive loads with the Cylinder tube or tighten things up for clays and small game with the Modified or Full.
It's a bird's head style pistol grip that comes in the box alongside the standard synthetic stock. Swapping it on gives you a shorter, more compact setup, while the full stock stays your best bet for accurate shoulder-fired shooting. Having both lets you configure the gun to fit how you plan to use it.
