Last year, when we walked into the Barrett booth, we were pleasantly surprised to find nice—we mean really nice—classic over-under and side-by-side shotguns forming an island of classic lines, well-figured walnut and beautiful engraving amongst the sea of massive, black modern semi-automatic and bolt rifles. The Barrett Sovereign Albany, shot here by American Rifleman's Mark Keefe, is a delightful round body over-under with full coverage engraving and bearing some seriously fine wood. For more, watch the video or visit barrettsovereign.com.
