escort shotgun?

[my82cam]

a buddy of mine has a brand new escort shotgun he is trying to sell me. it is a 12 ga pump 5+1 with a 18.5(i think) barrel. i haven't heard of escort and i am sure it is a cheap shotgun but i was wondering if anybody had any good/bad stories about them and if i should even try it as a beater gun.

They are good solid guns. Same thing as Hawk, H&R, etc.

I wouldn't want to take one into a war zone where it would get a ton of use and abuse.

However for the requirements of the average user they are decent, properly made shotguns that you will get many years of use out of and likely never wear it out.

Apparently there are a lot of different "Escort" models, but the ones I've seen have mostly been Remington 870 clones. Supposedly they're decent guns.

I wasn't familiar with them.

Hatsan Arms in Turkey.

Weird that Firefox detects Danish encoding.

I see they are a big air rifle maker too.
