Legacy Sports International, Inc., has just introduced its new 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun, the Citadel RS-S1.

The Citadel RS-S1 shotgun is a compact gas-operated shotgun based on the popular AK-style platform. Ideal for predator hunting, plinking and small game, the Citadel RS-S1 accepts 2¾ and 3-inch shells and sports a 20-inch chrome-moly lined barrel proofed for both lead and steel shot and threaded for Beretta/Benelli Mobile chokes. Though the Citadel RS-S1 has an adjustable rear sight and a fixed front sight, optics may be added atop the dust cover which features a full-length picatinny rail. The metal is finished in matte black, reducing glare while in the field.

To round out the package, the Citadel RS-S1 comes with an enhanced safety lever for easy manipulation, a large magazine release and bolt hold-open and bolt-release levers. The Citadel RS-S1 ships with two detachable 5-round magazines.

Behind the Bullet: The .308 Norma Magnum

Norma’s ballistician Nils Kvale saw the wisdom of having the velocity and horsepower of the .300 H&H Magnum, but in a shorter, more affordable receiver, and used the H&H case to develop his .358 Norma Magnum in 1959 as well as the .308 Norma Magnum one year later. The .308 Norma Magnum closely resembles the wildcat .30-338 cartridge, though the shoulder of the former is located a bit more toward the base than that of the .308 Norma Magnum. Intrigued?
