About this product
The CZ 1020 G2 Field 20 Gauge 28″ Mossy Oak Camo is a purpose-built semi-automatic shotgun designed for upland hunting and field use. It features an inertia-operated system adapted from CZ's 1012 G2 platform, delivering reliable cycling with 20-gauge loads while maintaining a lightweight profile. The shotgun ships with five extended choke tubes and a Mossy Oak Shadow Grass Blades camo finish for immediate field readiness.
What is the CZ 1020 G2 Field used for?
This shotgun is optimized for upland bird hunting and field shooting scenarios where quick handling and camouflage matter. The 28-inch barrel provides improved swing dynamics for moving targets, while the 6.1-pound weight reduces fatigue during extended carries. Its 3-inch chamber accommodates everything from light target loads to heavy waterfowl shells when paired with appropriate chokes.
How does the CZ 1020 G2 compare to the Stevens 555 Sporting O/U 20 Gauge?
The CZ offers faster follow-up shots through semi-automatic operation versus the Stevens 555's over-under action. While the Stevens 555 Sporting 20 Gauge provides inherent reliability with its break-action design, the CZ's 4+1 capacity gives it a two-shell advantage for situations requiring multiple engagements. The CZ's synthetic stock also withstands harsh conditions better than the Stevens' walnut furniture.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
Unloaded weight is 6.1 pounds (98 ounces) with an overall length of 48.5 inches. The 28-inch barrel features a vent rib measuring 8mm wide with a single mid-bead sight. The synthetic stock has a 14.5-inch length of pull and 1.5-inch drop at comb, fitting most adult shooters without modification.
Who is this NOT for?
Trap and skeet purists should consider dedicated target guns like the Stevens 555 Sporting O/U with its 30-inch barrels. The semi-automatic action introduces more moving parts than break-action designs, requiring more maintenance after heavy use. Left-handed shooters will find the ejection port orientation problematic during extended sessions.
What's in the box?
You receive five CZ Active extended choke tubes (Cylinder, Improved Cylinder, Modified, Improved Modified, Full), a Weaver-style rail pre-installed on the drilled-and-tapped receiver, and a lockable hard case. The package includes a detailed manual and warranty card, but notably omits a cleaning kit—plan to add a proper maintenance set separately.
Is the CZ 1020 G2 worth it at $689.99?
At this price point, it delivers exceptional value compared to Turkish-made alternatives costing $200 more. The included choke set alone represents a $120 value if purchased separately, while the drilled receiver saves another $75 in gunsmithing costs. For hunters needing reliable semi-auto performance without custom work, this represents one of the best ready-to-shoot packages available.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with aftermarket choke tubes?
- Yes, it uses standard Beretta/Benelli Mobil choke threads. The included CZ Active chokes are simply rebranded Mobil patterns—any aftermarket tube from Carlson's or Patternmaster will work. Thread pitch is 0.8125x32 TPI, identical to most European semi-autos.
- Does it fit in a standard shotgun case?
- The included hard case measures 52x12x5 inches internally—larger than most generic cases. For aftermarket options, look for cases designed for 28-inch barreled shotguns. The Mossy Oak finish requires a soft-lined case to prevent finish wear during transport.
- How long does shipping take?
- Firearms ship via FedEx Ground with adult signature required, typically 3-5 business days within continental US. All shipments require FFL coordination—allow 24-48 hours for paperwork processing before shipping confirmation. International orders require additional ATF Form 6 documentation.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit?
- Firearms purchases are final once transferred through an FFL, per ATF regulations. We recommend handling similar models at local dealers first—consider the <a href="/products/stevens-555-sprtng-ovr-undr-20ga-cmp/">Stevens 555 Compact</a> with 26-inch barrels if you need shorter length of pull.
- Does this work with low-recoil target loads?
- The inertia system requires minimum 1200 FPS velocity for reliable cycling—most 7/8 oz target loads function perfectly. For ultra-light 3/4 oz loads, use the Cylinder choke and ensure the action is properly broken in with 100 rounds of standard ammunition first.
