Great review. Just bought this 150.00 out the door. Took only a few minutes of handling to establish the fact that it is well made. Couldn't be happier. I do agree about the_#(%$$ safety. Ridiculous, however I love it. Thanks for the review.
great video except for the target part. when hunting you shoot one round at your game not 3, so would of liked to see the pattern of 1 round. showing what 3 or 4 shots do dose not help much, other that you can hit the target. Would like to see the difference between the 301 and the 301 turkey looks like the chock is different and the 301 turkey comes with a optical mount. but is there other differences.
I used my carbon tax and got me a IGA backpacker 410 shotgun for 250 . It has a 12inch barrel and is 3inch chambered. I love the gun as my new favorite.
What is your opinion as far as quality of this compared to an H&R, I own a H&R PARDNER and honestly it's one of the best guns you can get for under $200. It's sad that freedom group discontinued H&Rs but I was talking with a freedom group employee and they said the reason they discontinued H&R was because cost of manufacturing was higher than the price they were selling them for. But other companies such as henry and Steven's are trying the same idea.
Those 410 handgun shells don't preform so well from a smooth bore shotgun. (Thats the reason the manufacturers advertise a lower velocity.) Awesome little shotgun! Can't beat an good old break barrel.
Does the 410 have screw in choke tube or a fixed full choke? If screw-in, what choke were you using when firing critical defense, buck shot and slug rounds?
The safety is in fact a pain. The half cock turn the lever when it's open confuses my daughter. I don't mind a safety, but why make it complicated? On/off without the halfcock and open would be better.

Bought this today I LOVE it. I might buy the 301 Compact 20 gauge next for home defense

I will buy this to go to the target range and have fun with.
Great review. Wanting to get one in 12 gauge
How do these compare to the old H&Rs? They look very similar, so just had me curious.

Coke tubes fit this stevens 301 410?If not what aftermarket chokes work and where can I find them plus brand?thanks
I have a new Stevens 301 410 , Can you shoot a slug through it with the choke that comes on it?
Does the 410 have screw in choke tube or a fixed full choke?

i have the same gun
Manual safety is literally just so it meets import requirements.
Made in China, that's why it costs 170.00, if it were made in America it would go for 400.00.
