\"\"Madison, NC<\/strong> \u2013 Remington is pleased to announce the most exciting addition to its respected 100-year lineage of autoloading shotguns \u2013 the highly-anticipated VERSA MAX<\/a>.\u00a0 This technologically-advanced, gas-piston operated 12-gauge, 3\u00bd-inch autoloader shatters convention and all previous benchmarks for reliability with an action that is unlike any that have come before it.\u00a0 Built to withstand the elements, function reliably with all 12-gauge shells with less recoil than some 20-gauge shotguns, and designed to be fully adjustable for length of pull, comb height and stock drop and cast; the VERSA MAX represents true versatility to the MAX!<\/p>\n

Initial VERSA MAX offerings include a 28-inch black synthetic version with custom grey overmolded grips and 28-inch Mossy Oak Duck Blind\u00ae full camo version with black overmolded grips. In January 2011, two additional 12-gauge models will be introduced – a 26-inch black synthetic offering with grey overmolded grips and a 26-inch Realtree\u00ae AP\u2122 fully-camouflaged version. Both the 26-inch and 28-inch black synthetic models come with five Flush Pro Bore\u00ae chokes (Full, Mod, Imp Mod, Light Mod and IC) and both camouflaged versions come with four Pro Bore Extended choke tubes (IC, Mod, Full and Extra Full).\u00a0\u00a0 All models feature our soft-touch finish on the stocks and fore-ends.<\/p>\n

At the heart of VERSA MAX is our patented VersaPort\u2122 gas piston system; an extremely-reliable, semi-automatic operating system consisting of seven gas ports and two gas pistons for enhanced load versatility, while softening recoil and reducing maintenance. The VersaPort gas system self-regulates gas pressure based on the length of the shell, for flawless cycling no matter the load!\u00a0 Additionally with its self-cleaning gas piston system, overall maintenance time and effort is greatly reduced. With fewer parts than conventional gas systems, not only is cleaning easier but there are fewer parts to maintain. From the lightest 2 \u00be-inch target loads to the heaviest 3 \u00bd-inch magnums, the VERSA MAX cycles with ultimate consistency, softer recoil and less maintenance than ever experienced before.<\/p>\n

VERSA MAX proved its reliability in an extreme test of endurance. We cycled hundreds of thousands of rounds through VERSA MAX in temperature extremes ranging from -200 F to 1200 F and it passed the test! Reliability is essential, but VERSA MAX is durable as well.<\/p>\n

Designed for the field, VERSA MAX provides extreme corrosion resistance with its anodized aluminum receiver; TriNyte\u00ae-coated barrel with nickel-plated bore (camo guns have nickel-plated barrels and bores with camo outer layer); nickel-Teflon\u00ae plated internal gas system components; stainless steel magazine tube; aluminum action tube; and nickel-plated springs.\u00a0 Housed in a durable soft-touch synthetic stock with rubber overmolded grip panels in key areas of the stock and fore-end, VERSA MAX provides superior handling and grip in all weather conditions.\u00a0 Larger trigger guard design and over-sized cross-bolt safety provide greater dexterity when wearing gloves on extreme cold weather hunts.<\/p>\n

VERSA MAX is designed to be fully adjustable for a custom fit as well.\u00a0 The stock features an extra thick SuperCell\u2122 recoil pad and Adjustable Length of Pull (LOP) Spacer Kit so you can quickly adjust the stock length, up to one inch longer, to adapt to any shooting situation.\u00a0 To further customize fit, VERSA MAX has an adjustable drop and cast shim system which is easily tailored to fit with the included wrench. An interchangeable, padded cheek comb insert allows for better sight alignment and comfort when shooting. Proper fit combined with the recoil-absorbing features of the VERSA MAX, makes shooting more enjoyable and reduces the recoil of even the heaviest waterfowl loads to a light push.<\/p>\n

Additional features on this revolutionary 12-gauge autoloader include mil-spec anodized aluminum receiver for overall weight reduction and corrosion resistance with superior strength of design; 4140 hammer-forged steel barrel with a ventilated rib that tapers from 10mm at the receiver to 7mm at the muzzle for consistent sighting; drilled and tapped receiver for mounting optics; sling studs for ease of carrying; over-sized cross-bolt safety; Pro Bore choke tubes to match any shooting situation; HiViz\u00ae sights featuring interchangeable light pipes for quick target acquisition; and a 3+1 shell capacity for 2 \u00be\u00a0 & 3-inch shotshells and 2+1 for 3 \u00bd-inch shotshells.<\/p>\n

Ready to take afield or to the range, VERSA MAX comes complete with a custom rugged, hard plastic carrying case. As an added bonus, all VERSA MAX shotguns come standard with Remington\u2019s Platinum Service Plan.\u00a0 Free to all who participate, the plan includes one courtesy cleaning and detailed inspection within the first 12 months of purchase, 7-day turnaround on all repairs and free shipping on all warranty repairs.<\/p>\n
