Design and key features

The GF25 is built around a sturdy synthetic stock that resists weather and hard use, making it a low-maintenance choice for owners who demand durability. The 20 inch barrel offers a compact package for close-quarters while preserving the shot patterns expected from a 12-gauge platform. A 3 inch chamber allows flexibility with magnum and defensive loads, and the included one 5 round magazine gives a reliable feeding system for sustained use.

Sights, ergonomics, and handling

Flip-up sights provide quick target acquisition without relying on optics, and they can be paired with aftermarket optics if desired. The synthetic stock reduces felt recoil and keeps the weight manageable for repeated drills. For shooters prioritizing tactical readiness, the semi-auto cycling of the GF25 reduces follow-up shot delay compared to manual actions when using appropriate loads.

Ammunition and applications

Chambering in 12GA makes the GF25 versatile for defensive, training, and some field applications. The 3 inch chamber accepts a broad range of defensive and buckshot loads; for home defense, modern 00 buck or low-recoil defensive rounds are suitable choices. The semi-auto action is forgiving with quality ammunition and benefits from routine maintenance to sustain reliability.
