Key Features
- 28-inch chrome-lined barrels — WHY IT MATTERS: Chrome lining resists corrosion and extends barrel life, so you get consistent patterns round after round, even with heavy use.
- Mechanical single selective trigger — WHY IT MATTERS: No inertia or recoil needed to reset; you can shoot the choke of your choice in any order without worrying about the gun cycling.
- Extractor system — WHY IT MATTERS: Extracts fired shells cleanly without the complexity of ejectors, reducing maintenance and ensuring reliable shell removal every time.
- Turkish walnut stock with checkering — WHY IT MATTERS: Checkered panels give you a secure grip in wet or gloved hands, while the walnut adds classic looks that stand out at the range.
- Blued finish on receiver and barrels — WHY IT MATTERS: Provides a durable, low-glare surface that resists rust and scratches, keeping the gun looking sharp season after season.
Who It’s For
This shotgun is for the tech-savvy shooter who wants modern reliability in a traditional package. It’s perfect for new shooters stepping up from a single-shot or pump, as well as experienced hunters looking for a backup gun that won’t break the bank. If you value clean lines, consistent performance, and a gun that’s ready to shoot right out of the box, the GF5 fits your lane.
Pros / Cons
- Pros: Lightweight at 7.2 lbs, chrome-lined barrels for longevity, mechanical trigger for consistent ignition, affordable price point for an O/U, classic walnut stock looks great.
- Cons: Extractor-only (no auto ejectors) means slower reloading in competition; the trigger is a bit heavy out of the box — expect a 5-6 lb pull.
How It Stacks Up
| Feature | GFORCE Arms GF5 | Stoeger Condor | TriStar Trinity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Barrel Length | 28 inches | 26 inches | 28 inches |
| Weight | 7.2 lbs | 7.5 lbs | 7.4 lbs |
| Chrome Lining | Yes | No | No |
| Trigger Type | Mechanical single selective | Inertia single selective | Mechanical single selective |
| Stock Material | Turkish walnut | Hardwood | Turkish walnut |
| Price | $396.99 | $429.99 | $459.99 |
The GF5 edges out the Stoeger Condor with chrome-lined barrels and a mechanical trigger, while undercutting the TriStar Trinity by over $60. If you want a gun that’s lighter and more corrosion-resistant than the competition, this is your pick.
One honest drawback: the extractor-only system means you’ll have to reach for each shell manually — not ideal for high-speed reloads in 3-gun or trap doubles. But for field use and casual clays, it’s a non-issue.
FAQ
What is the barrel length on the GFORCE Arms GF5 28/28 O/U?
Both barrels are 28 inches long, giving you a balanced swing for clays and a tight pattern for birds. Per manufacturer specs, they’re chrome-lined for durability.
Does this shotgun come with interchangeable chokes?
Yes, the GF5 includes three Beretta/Benelli-pattern choke tubes: IC, M, and F. You can swap them in seconds with the included wrench.
Is the stock adjustable for length of pull?
No, the stock is fixed with a 14.5-inch length of pull. For most adult shooters, it fits well, but you can add a slip-on pad if needed.
