The Tamer includes all the H&R high performance features including automatic shell ejection, H&R's Transfer Bar System to prevent accidental firing, and even a special locking system for safe storage.

Nice little gun

By Brandon

Comments about H&R 1871 Inc H&R Snake Tamer Shotgun:

I bought this at the thanksgiving day sale just for target practice and shooting rodents at the farm. I love this little gun. It is small in size but it serves its purpose. I have no problems picking clay pigeons off either. I would rather take this small game hunting because of its size and weight. Would make a nice x-mas gift.

  Both are right. This is the 20 ga. model. There is a 410 ga. model as well. The 20 ga. holds 3 shells on the side & the 410 ga. holds 4 shells on the side.
  Answered on 12/28/2009 by Nick from Postville, IA
- A:
  There is a .20 and a .410 available, if you look at the entire shotgun listings you can find the .410 as well.
