Remington Versa Max
The Remington Versa Max, also styled as VERSA MAX, is a gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun introduced by Remington Arms in 2010. It is chambered to use 12 gauge shells of 2+3⁄4 inches (7.0 cm), 3 inches (7.6 cm), and 3+1⁄2 inches (8.9 cm) in length.[4] It was named the shotgun of the year for 2011 by American Rifleman.[5]
Design
The Versa Max features a patented gas-operated reloading system that "self-regulates gas pressure, based on the length of the shell".[1] The internal cup that holds a shell when it is fired has a series of holes that regulate gas flow; shorter shells expose more of the holes than longer shells.[1][4] Remington states that the Versa Max "reduces 12 gauge recoil to that of a 20 gauge."[6] The action of the Versa Max is a redesign of the Benelli M4.[3]
Offerings
The Versa Max Sportsman is a reduced-cost variant of the Versa Max. Differences include a bead sight rather than a fiber-optic sight, only one choke rather than five chokes, and reduced cosmetics.[4]
As of June 2020[update], Remington listed seven versions on their website:[1]
- Versa Max: Synthetic (no camouflage), Realtree AP HD Camo, Waterfowl Pro, Mossy Oak Duck Blind
- Versa Max Sportsman: Plain (no camouflage), Mossy Oak Duck Blind, Mossy Oak Turkey Camo
There were additionally two tactical offerings, the Tactical and Competition Tactical.[7]
