has anyone on here used a Hatfield shot gun ? Wallmart has a 28 ga semiauto shotgun for sale.. I am thinking of getting one . they are very cheap made in Turkey.. I have been reading about them and for the price seem to be ok for the casual Squirrel/Rabbit hunter.. I have enough shells to last for a couple seasons of squirrel and Rabbit hunting ,any true advice would be appreciated... Thanks.

I wonder how they compare to the McCoy shotguns. 😁
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

Cheap and inexpensive are different things.
You'll never wear it out in your lifetime.

I bought both a 12 and a 20 gauge when Wal-Mart was clearing them out a few years ago. The twelve has been flawless. The 20 I had to break in with heavier loads, but it seems to cycle everything now.
On a side note, the twelve will cycle aguila mini shells if you only put one in the magazine. If you put two in the magazine, it creates a he'll of a jam.

I asked the same question awhile back and mainly got negative answers. As such, I didn't buy one.

I have a port for medical treatments beside my R shoulder ,a hard kicking gun is a problem.. a 410 is ok.. a 20 ga is border line.. I believe a 28 ga would be fine. with normal loads...

I bought a yildiz 28 o/u from academy a few years ago for quail. love it. 28 has very little recoil and lot more punch than a 410

I am thinking the semi auto should be a little softer shooting. Right or wrong??

Lmao.
They are the single biggest POS of a firearm I’ve held in my hands. Yep, I bought one. A 12ga single shot. Paid a grand total of $69 at Walmart 3 years ago. It’s over priced by $64.
Right in the box it says “enjoy hours of enjoyment.”
Well the enjoyment is for whoever watches your shoot that pile of crap. I’ve held 2x4’s that fit better. Wear gloves if you got the 12ga. She bucks.
There is no choke of any kind that I can tell. So, hopefully you’re close to whatever it is you’re shooting at.
It’s leaning on the corner or the shack by the door. Somebody broke in and took everything of value. They left the Hatfield.
Other than that, it’s a decent shotgun.

You'll never wear it out in your lifetime. I disagree. You’ll wear it out within a box of shells.
