LEDE S2 Bottomland In 20 Gauge

Spandau Arms, a brand of SDS Arms, has announced that the  Spandau S2 Shotgun is now available in a 20-gauge model in both a Mossy Oak Bottomland and a traditional wood finish. The Spandau S2 shotgun is inertia driven and features an enlarged loading gate for easier loading with gloves on in cool conditions. It accepts Benelli pattern extensions and choke tubes. A red fiber-optic front site makes it extremely easy to find your point of aim, especially in low-light conditions when the mallards are flying, and the long beards are strutting.

“The popularity of our Spandau S2 shotguns continues to grow, so adding a 20-gauge was an obvious decision for us,” said Chris DiCenso, CEO of Spandau Arms/SDS Arms.  “Being able to provide a reliable shotgun to the bird hunter, or waterfowler at an affordable price point is something we take great pride in.”

Textured grips on the buttstock—either a Mossy Oak Bottomland synthetic buttstock or a wood buttstock—keep the shooter in control of the shotgun, no matter how wet or cold the conditions when out in the marsh looking for ducks or walking the woods looking for a big turkey.
