About this product
The SDS Imports Spandau Premier Field .410 Bore 28″ Barrel is an over-under shotgun chambered for .410 shells with Turkish walnut stock and Benelli Mobil choke system. This 7.2 lb shotgun features a 28-inch barrel length and 14 3/8-inch length of pull for balanced field handling. Its 3-inch chamber accommodates standard .410 loads while the mechanical trigger system provides reliable ignition.
What is the SDS Imports Spandau Premier Field used for?
This shotgun excels in small game hunting and clay target shooting with its precise .410 bore patterning. The 28-inch barrel provides excellent swing dynamics for tracking fast-moving targets, while the Benelli Mobil choke system allows customization from improved cylinder to full constriction. For upland birds or introductory skeet shooting, this offers a low-recoil alternative to larger gauges.
How does the Spandau Premier Field compare to the Stevens 555 Sporting O/U Shotgun .410 Bore?
The Spandau Premier Field outperforms the Stevens 555 Sporting .410 in wood quality and choke system compatibility, though it commands a $300 premium. Where the Stevens uses basic Turkish walnut and Invector-style chokes, the Spandau features higher-grade wood with more pronounced figure and accepts the broader Benelli Mobil choke ecosystem. Both patterns .410 shells effectively, but the Spandau's finish and choke options justify its position in the market.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The shotgun weighs 7.2 pounds with an overall length of 45 inches and barrel length of 28 inches. The 14 3/8-inch length of pull accommodates most adult shooters, while the 1.5-inch drop at comb and 2.25-inch drop at heel provide consistent cheek weld. These dimensions create a balanced platform that minimizes fatigue during extended hunting sessions or clay courses.
Who is this NOT for?
Serious waterfowl hunters should avoid this shotgun due to its .410 bore limitations and 2-round capacity. The .410 pattern lacks the energy and pellet count necessary for consistent clean kills at range on ducks or geese, and the limited capacity restricts follow-up shots. For these applications, consider a 12-gauge over-under like the Stevens 555 Sporting 12 Gauge with its higher payload capacity.
What's in the box?
The package includes the shotgun, one improved cylinder choke tube, choke tube wrench, and owner's manual. Unlike some competitors, it does not include additional choke tubes or a hard case, requiring separate purchases for full choke versatility and transport protection. The manual covers basic disassembly and maintenance procedures specific to this Turkish-made firearm.
Is the Spandau Premier Field worth it at $1243.99?
At $1243.99, this shotgun delivers excellent value for shooters seeking a refined .410 over-under with premium features. The Turkish walnut stock and gloss blued finish exceed typical offerings in this price range, while the Benelli Mobil choke system provides aftermarket support superior to proprietary systems. For dedicated .410 enthusiasts or those introducing new shooters to shotgunning, this represents a sensible investment that will perform for decades.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with 2.5 inch .410 shells?

- How long does shipping take?
- Firearms ship within 3 business days to your selected FFL dealer following background check completion. Transit time averages 5-7 days via UPS or FedEx, though rural locations may experience additional 2-3 day delays.
- Can I return it if it doesn't fit?
- Returns are accepted within 30 days for unfired firearms in original packaging, subject to 15% restocking fee and return shipping costs. Fired firearms cannot be returned due to federal regulations governing used firearm sales.
