Mossberg dropped a new, affordable pair of semi-auto shotguns: two models of the new Maverick SA hunting 12 gauge.

The gunmaker calls the new hunting shotgun a versatile, value-focused semi-automatic platform built to deliver reliable performance season after season.

"The Maverick SA continues Mossberg's tradition of offering quality, dependable shotguns at an accessible price point," Mossberg says.

The new 12-gauge Maverick SA Semi-Auto shotguns are engineered as true multi-season workhorses, chambered for both 2.75-inch and 3-inch shotshells and featuring a 6-shot capacity.
