Design and finish

The Nickel Marine finish on the Black Aces Pro Series X is more than cosmetic — it resists corrosion in humid environments and stands up to frequent handling. The 18.5″ barrel length is a common balance for defensive use: compact enough for maneuvering indoors while retaining effective patterning with the included chokes. Front and rear rifle sights offer positive reference points for quick, two-eye shooting under stress.

At a price of $139.99, it represents an accessible entry point to a tactical-style shotgun without sacrificing core defensive features.
