Title: ATI Scout Semi Auto 28GA TSS
Post by: Tkrysl on January 23, 2022, 10:05:34 PM
Evening,

I have a new ATI 28ga Scout Semi Auto on the way for a cheap $295 plus shipping and am excited to play around with TSS in it.  I am curious if anyone has had any history with this gun and what they thought.  I am aware all the Turkish guns are the same (according to Randy Wakeman & Armsan's website) but how is yours holding up, any malfunctioning, etc.

I got it specifically because I didn't want to drop 1k on a gun I will be dragging through the mud come Spring.

I also will be in the market for a choke tube for it.  TSS #9 is what I will be loading and it has the Mobil Choke system in it.  Does anybody out there have any recommendations on a 28ga choke?

Thanks in advance,

Tim

Check with William at Sumtoy on the choke.  He advertises on here.

I don't have any experience but would be very interested in a 28 gauge around this price point. What does the gun weigh?

I've had excellent results from Briley XFULL in 28 gauge Mobil choke with TSS #9's.

Are these guns already drilled and tap from the factory ?

Any updates on your experience with this gun?  Chokes you've tried, optics?
