Description

The Retay ACE-R in Realtree Legacy camo is one of those guns that punches well above its price and does it without any fuss. It's a 12 gauge inertia-driven semi-auto chambered for shells up to 3.5 inches, riding a 26 inch deep bore drilled barrel with a factory-lengthened forcing cone that helps throw tighter, more even patterns. The "R" in the name points to the slight humpback receiver profile, which gives you a longer, flatter sighting plane than the standard slope-back ACE. Top that off with the Realtree Legacy wrap and a single fiber optic bead, and you've got a duck and goose gun that blends into the marsh and gets you on birds quick.

What Makes the ACE-R Run

At the heart of this shotgun is Retay's Inertia Plus system, a rotating bolt that locks up tight every time with no bolt rattle. The revamped bolt design reduces cycling friction and does a solid job of running everything from light one-ounce target loads to heavy waterfowl payloads. A stainless steel recoil buffer spring adds corrosion resistance for those nasty, wet days in the blind. If you ever need to clean or service it, the push-button removable trigger group drops out in seconds, which is a genuinely handy touch most guns at this level don't offer.

Fit, Feel, and Field Comfort

The ACE-R leads with the new AIRY recoil pad, a next-generation pad designed to soak up kick and reduce felt recoil by up to 30 percent. Paired with a soft comb pad, it keeps long range sessions and heavy 3.5 inch loads comfortable. The 14.5 inch length of pull comes with a shim kit so you can dial in cast and drop to fit your build. Oversized, reversible safety and an enlarged bolt release and charging handle make the controls easy to work with cold or gloved hands.

Chokes and Setup on the ACE-R

The barrel follows the Benelli Crio Plus choke pattern, so the big aftermarket world of turkey and long-range waterfowl tubes is open to you. The 12 gauge receiver comes drilled and tapped, and the gun is compatible with Benelli extended magazine tubes if you want to expand capacity down the road. Backed by Retay's limited lifetime warranty, the ACE-R is a lot of shotgun for the money and a strong pick for serious waterfowlers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What choke tubes fit the Retay ACE-R?

The ACE-R barrel follows the Benelli Crio Plus choke pattern, so just about any newer Benelli-style tube will thread right in. It ships with a flush-mount set covering Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, and Full, along with an extended long-range waterfowl choke and a wrench. That means you've got plenty of aftermarket options if you want a dedicated turkey or specialty waterfowl tube later on.

What's the difference between the ACE and the ACE-R?

Both guns share the same internal components, barrels, stocks, and Inertia Plus action. The difference is the receiver profile: the standard ACE uses a traditional slope-back receiver, while the ACE-R has a slight humpback design that gives you a longer, flatter sighting plane. It comes down to personal preference and how you like to pick up your sight picture.

Can you mount an optic on the ACE-R?

The 12 gauge ACE-R receiver comes drilled and tapped from the factory, so it's set up to accept a Benelli-pattern rail mount for adding a red dot. That makes it a solid option if you want to run an optic for turkey season or close-range waterfowl work. You'll want to pick up the correct rail and optic separately since those aren't included.

Does the ACE-R handle 3.5 inch shells and light target loads?

Yes, this model is chambered for shells up to 3.5 inches, which gives you serious punch for geese and heavy waterfowl loads. The revamped Inertia Plus bolt is designed to cycle reliably across a wide range, including lighter one-ounce loads for practice or doves. That versatility lets you train and hunt with the same gun.
