Easy Locking Bolt System
Versatility without compromise: having a shotgun with a 3½" chamber does not mean you must always shoot the powerful stuff. The SBE 3’s patented locking mechanism works flawlessly with all shotgun loads—from light clay loads to the ultimate goose-busters.
A spring-activated ball detent slides effortlessly in the bolt, locking it into battery no matter the pressure. Also, if the bolt is accidentally bumped or pulled back even by a small amount, the detent’s pressure will guide it back into the locked position. Result: the SBE 3 will always be ready to fire when you are and with whatever shotshells you choose.
