Description
Single shots have a reputation as bare-bones beginner guns, and Retay clearly set out to change that with the Gamelander. This .410 bore break action gets the same barrel treatment as Retay's semi-autos: a Deep Bore drilled 22-inch barrel paired with a factory lengthened forcing cone. That combination is the real story here, because it translates to denser, more consistent patterns downrange, which matters a lot when you're sending a .410 payload at a gobbler's head or trying to anchor a squirrel out of a tall oak.
What Sets the Gamelander .410 Apart
The trigger breaks clean, the action opens crisp, and the whole package handles like the light, quick-pointing gun a single shot should be. The matte black synthetic stock shrugs off weather and rough treatment, the adjustable cheek piece lets you dial in your eye behind the bead or an optic, and Retay's AIRY recoil pad uses an internal air pocket design to soak up what little kick a .410 produces. There's a brass bead up front, and the receiver wears a low-profile Picatinny rail, so mounting a red dot for turkey season takes minutes instead of a trip to the gunsmith. The .410 version is also drilled and tapped, giving you flexibility in how you set it up.
Built to Pack In and Pack Out
The quick take-down design breaks the Gamelander into a compact package for the truck, a backpack, or the back corner of the safe. At 38 inches overall with a 3-inch chamber, it's an easy carry for run-and-gun turkey hunts, rabbit patches, and long walks to the squirrel woods.
Chokes, Warranty, and the Long Haul
Retay includes removable choke tubes with this one, including a .385 constriction extra full extended turkey choke built to throw dense patterns with lead, steel, or TSS loads. Cylinder and modified tubes round out the set for small game and general field work. Retay backs the Gamelander with a limited lifetime warranty, so this is the kind of simple, sturdy shotgun that ends up getting handed down.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Retay Gamelander .410 a good turkey gun?
That's exactly what it was built for. The Deep Bore drilled barrel and lengthened forcing cone are designed to put noticeably more pellets in the kill zone, and it ships with a .385 constriction extra full turkey choke made to pattern well with lead, steel, and TSS loads. Add the Picatinny rail for a red dot and you've got a light, packable turkey rig.
Can I mount a red dot or scope on the Gamelander?
Yes. The .410 Gamelander comes with a low-profile Picatinny rail on the receiver, and this model is also drilled and tapped. Most compact red dots and shotgun scopes will mount right up, and the adjustable cheek piece helps you get proper eye alignment behind an optic.
Does the Gamelander come with choke tubes?
It does. Retay includes removable chokes with the .410 model: a cylinder, a modified, and a .385 extra full extended Turkey-Lander choke. That set covers everything from close-range small game to tight turkey patterns without buying anything extra.
Is this a good first shotgun for a new or young hunter?
It's a strong choice. The single shot break action is about as simple and easy to learn as it gets, .410 recoil is mild to begin with, and the AIRY recoil pad softens it further. That said, the barrel quality and included turkey choke make it plenty of gun for experienced hunters too.
