Stevens' 555 in 28 gauge is a light over/under field gun with 26-inch barrels on a vented mid-rib, 2 3/4 inch chambers and removable chokes, with additional chokes in the box. The metal is matte black and the checkered Turkish walnut stock and forend measure 14.5 inches of pull. It is listed as used on our side; the supplier describes it as new with a stock photo.

New Jersey deer rules call for 10 to 20 gauge shotguns, which leaves the 28 out of the December season, so the 555 is a small-game and clays gun in this state. Short barrels and the small bore keep weight down for a long walk, the choke set adjusts the pattern to the cover you are working, and the matte finish is a practical choice for a gun that will see wet mornings. The 14.5-inch pull suits most adult shooters without a stock change.
