Description
The Iver Johnson IJ600 Lightweight is a full-size .410 bore over/under that nails the look and feel of a traditional field gun without the heft. It runs a 28-inch vent rib barrel set with 3-inch chambers, a satin silver engraved aluminum receiver, and checkered walnut on both the stock and forend. At right around 5.12 pounds, it's genuinely light in the hands, which makes a real difference when you're covering ground on a long upland walk or just working a station at the range.
What the IJ600 Brings to the Field
The .410 bore is a forgiving little round with soft recoil, so this one is a pleasure to shoot for a full afternoon. You get a single trigger with a barrel selector built into the tang safety, letting you pick which barrel fires first depending on how you've got your chokes set up. Both barrels run extractors to lift the shells for easy unloading, and there's a vent rib up top for clean sight alignment. A fiber optic front sight paired with an intermediate bead gives you a quick, bright reference when a bird flushes.
Chokes and Setup on the IJ600 .410
The gun ships with five MobilChoke interchangeable tubes covering Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Skeet. That spread means you can tune the pattern for tight shots on distant quail or open it up for close flushes and clay work, all from the same barrels. Sling swivel studs come fitted on the barrel and stock, so adding a sling for field carry is straightforward.
Handling the Iver Johnson IJ600
With its ambidextrous tang safety setup, this shotgun suits right- and left-handed shooters alike. The walnut furniture and silver engraved receiver give it a dressy, old-school presence that belongs in an upland rig, and the balance makes it an easy gun to swing on moving targets. It's a smart pick for small-game and upland hunting, casual clays, or anyone who wants a light, good-looking .410 double that's simple to run.
