Webley .410 Bolt Action Gun, Circa 1953

.410 Shotguns

The choice in .410 shotguns seems a little limited compared to its 12 bore larger brother, though many makers have made (if not still do) .410 shotguns.

You can find Holland and Holland, Boss, Cogswell and Harrison .410s (if you are lucky, or rich) though you are more likely to come across one of the many older (or not so old) single and double barrel Belgium and Spanish folding shotguns (enquire at your local gun shops). The doubles being of more use on a 'Clay' layout.

The 'older' guns also include the likes of the BSA and Webley bolt action single barrel guns which are great fun to shoot.

Some old military rifles have been 'bored out' to produce .410 bolt action shotguns, an example being Enfield SMLE etc.

If you wish to venture into the word of reloading or like to use the heavier 'magnum' 3 inch cartridges, Ensure that you get a gun chambered for 3 inch cartridges.

Many of the older guns have 2.5 inch chambers and can not be used with 3 inch cartridges!

The Combination guns are here
The Pistols are here
Semi Auto/Pumps are here

The following are some of the modern/available(?) .410 shotguns (List under construction .. )

Beretta

A number of Berettas top notch guns can be obtained in .410 (e.g S687EL, SO9)

Browning .410 Bore Feather XS Citori Shotguns

Small-gauge competitors need not sacrifice a single one of the features found on the top sporting clays shotguns. The Feather XS in .410 bore breaks clays with all the authority of its siblings.

Concord

Conquest - "I bought a new gun on Monday, a 'Concord Conquest' 410 o/u, for £395. (May 2006)
At first look it is quite well made, and feels really nice when held.The action is true 410 size, but it is heavier than expected.It has 27.5 inch barrels according to the sale sheet,3" chamber,  non-ejector, non-selectable trigger, but according to the shop, it is fitted inside for a selector, so a decent gunsmith should be able to convert it if you want that option.Choked 1/2 and full.Non-automatic safety."

It is much better quality than the Investarm, and I think it is far better than the same priced (£400) Yildiz S/S.I bought it from Rugby Gun Shop:
http://www.gunshoprugby.com
who say they have sold a few of these.They are imported by Nickersons, but there is no other markings on the gun, apart from 'Conquest' on the side of the action, and the 'Germany' stamp and proof mark.Apparently the maker is called 'Concord'

If you're a first time buyer, or someone looking for a good second gun which provides outstanding value for money, then the Lowlander is the ideal solution. Cost effective and highly capable, it has little competition.
The distinctive Macnab characteristics are never far away, with its excellent balance and handling qualities the Lowlander takes its rightful place in our range of guns.

The Highlander, with its "Boss" style hollow rib, the gun balances beautifully. With its elegant schnabel fore-end and semi-Prince of Wales stock, the Highlander sits in the hands purposefully

ALOOF and the Lever Action (Marshall Williams)

Marlin


An exciting new 410-bore that's ideal for small game and pests.
Based on a 410 shotgun we made over 70 years ago, the Model 410 is built around our 1895 frame.
It features a 22" barrel with a folding open rear, and a high visibility green fiber optic front sight.
The barrel is cylinder bore, and it fires all 2.5" 410 shells (only), including rifled slugs. Its walnut stock features a pistol grip, cut checkering, a blued steel forend cap, and rubber butt pad.

Winchester

The Model 9410 is the first production Model 94 action chambered in .410 bore. And it’s the first lever action .410 in just about . . . forever.
With the Model 9410 you get everything that makes the Model 94 famous.

9410 Packer, All the great features of the award winning Model 9410 in a smaller package

At first glance you’ll think it’s a Model 94® rifle. But it’s a shotgun inside: fitted with a smoothbore barrel and chambered to handle all current factory 2-1/2" .410 bore shotgun loads.

Snake Charmer


For hunters young and old, the Snake Charmer®II is an excellent little game getter. A careful hunter can easily take rabbits, dove and quail sized birds, squirrel and the like using medium power cartridges and 6 to 9 size shot. An experienced marksman, using the Snake Charmer®II field gun, can place six rounds of magnum .410 slugs into a paper plate at 100 feet in less than 30 seconds. This is a lot of firepower out of a four pound weapon.
