Maria O/U Shotguns

Working art.

The Marias over & under is one of the finest shotguns available today. A true hand-detachable back-action sidelock, every feature stands as testament of Kimber's commitment to quality and classic firearm design. At the same time, they are the product of the finest raw materials and computer driven manufacturing. Without embracing this technology, it would be impossible to create such a refined shotgun.

Currently available in 20 gauge, Marias shotguns are classic field guns. Designed around the legendary sidelock action that has served as the foundation of the best and most expensive firearms ever made, they are built to last a lifetime.

Marias receivers wear the warm, vibrant colors of bone charcoal case coloring. Receiver and locks are also engraved by hand in a delicate scroll to a generous fifty percent coverage. This traditional combination is further complemented by the rich figure of fine Turkish walnut stocks hand checkered at 24 lines per inch, then carefully finished with repeated coats of hand-rubbed oil.

Each Marias shotgun wears scroll hand engraving, bone charcoal case colors and fine finishing touches like niter blued trigger, pins and hammers.	A set of five thin-wall choke tubes is provided with each Marias shotgun. 8mm ventilated ribs are standard.
	All Marias shotguns feature automatic ejectors, three-inch chambers and chrome-lined barrels suitable for steel shot.

Barrels are finished in elegant Belgian rust blue, the perfect contrast to bone charcoal. Here, tradition blends with modern reality. Chrome lining allows the use of steel shot, and a set of five thinwall choke tubes is included. Automatic ejectors and ventilated ribs are standard features.

Little things are often the harbinger of quality. Brilliant niter blue is found on pins, trigger and hammers. Gold line cocking indicators grace each lock. Length of pull is a proper 14.75 inches to the 24 LPI hand-checkered butt. The lock is finished like a fine Swiss watch.

The Marias is a true back-action sidelock with exceptional trigger pull and flawless function. Internal parts are hand-polished and jeweled.
