Finding a double gun that fits a smaller frame usually means settling for something that feels like an afterthought. The Weatherby Orion Compact is the exception. Weatherby took their proven Orion over-under, trimmed the length of pull to 13.25 inches, and kept everything else that makes the standard gun worth owning. The result is a 20 gauge that mounts naturally for young hunters, smaller-framed adults, and anyone who never quite got along with a full-size stock.
There is nothing stripped down here. You get a matte blued forged steel boxlock receiver with a slim, low-profile design that shoulders quick and puts your eye right down the rib. The 26 inch barrels are chrome lined for easy cleanup and long service life, topped with a ventilated rib and a classic brass front bead. Automatic ejectors kick empty hulls clear so reloads stay fast when the birds keep coming, and the ambidextrous top tang safety works the same whether you shoot righty or lefty. The mechanical trigger breaks clean, which matters more than people give it credit for on crossing shots.
The A Grade oil-rubbed walnut stock is a genuine highlight at this level, and the Prince of Wales grip gives smaller hands a comfortable, relaxed hold that a full pistol grip sometimes fights against. At 5.75 pounds and a hair over 42 inches overall, this gun carries all day without complaint and gets on target in a hurry.
With 3 inch chambers and Improved Cylinder, Modified, and Full choke tubes included, it covers dove fields, upland cover, and weekend clays without needing anything extra out of the box. For a first serious over-under or a lifetime gun for a smaller shooter, this one checks the boxes that matter.
The Compact is built around a 13.25 inch length of pull, roughly an inch shorter than a standard adult stock. That makes it a great fit for youth hunters, smaller-framed adults, and anyone who feels stretched out on a full-size gun. It handles like a proper Orion, just scaled to fit.
Yes, both barrels are chambered for 3 inch 20 gauge shells, so magnum loads for late-season birds are on the table. That said, at 5.75 pounds this is a light gun, so most folks will be happiest running 2.75 inch field and target loads for high-volume days.
It ships with three tubes: Improved Cylinder, Modified, and Full. That set covers most upland hunting, dove fields, and casual clays right out of the box, and you can add specialty chokes later if you want them.
It has automatic ejectors, which throw spent hulls clear when you break the action open. Fired shells pop out on their own while unfired shells just lift for easy removal, keeping reloads quick during a fast flurry of birds.
