SL5 Main

J.P. Sauer and Sohn, Germany’s oldest manufacturer of hunting firearms, is pleased to introduce its new SL5 Turkey shotguns. Featuring a durable Inertia-Driven System requiring fewer parts and minimal cleaning, the SL5 is available in three camo patterns—Mossy Oak Obsession, Mossy Oak Bottomland, and Mossy Oak New Bottomland.

Designed for hardcore turkey hunters, these semi-automatic 12-gauge shotguns accommodate 2¾- and 3-inch shells and feature an 18.5-inch deep-drilled, chrome-lined barrel with stepped rib for precise alignment. All SL5 Turkey models feature a black anodized receiver with an oversized extended bolt handle and release button, removable picatinny rail, and camo-composite pistol-grip stock with Cervellati recoil pad and sling attachments. The red single-bead LPA front fiber-optic sight facilitates fast and accurate target acquisition.

“We are excited to partner with Mossy Oak to introduce these new high-performance, camo pattern turkey guns in our SL5 series,” said Jason Evans, CEO of the Blaser Group. “There is strong demand, and we designed these new shotguns to deliver desired features and consistent reliability at a very competitive price point.”

Made in Italy and backed by a 10-year factory warranty, the SL5 Turkey shotguns weigh 7 pounds, have a 3+1 capacity, and come standard with three chokes—a flush Cylinder, an extended Crio Plus Modified choke, and a Carlson extended Turkey choke.

Its Pro Hunter III SX rifle is an all-around hunting rifle and a great example of Steyr quality, a trait much easier felt than described. I’ll try it anyway.
