Default 12 GAUGE ESCORT

I just purchased a 12 gauge escort for $219 at Turners Outdoorsman. I never heard of this name brand. I am usually very skeptical to buying something especially guns that arent name brand. But this gun was all mossy oak camo, felt incredibly nice and had great action to it. Has anybody heard of this name brand. Man for 219 I feel like it was a steel. Also comes with 2 choke tubes, and is chambered for 3inch. Any insight on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

Has anybody ever heard of Escort shotguns made in Turkey. I guess it will be ideal for Turkey use then.

The escort is made by Howa and comes in a few different configurations. Here is the link.

I' ve never heard of them before, but checked out the link. They look nice enough. I guess you get the job of letting us know how it works out for you by writing a review. Good luck with it.
