hunting shotgun

Fowl-taking long gun

A hunting shotgun is a shotgun designed or suited for hunting game birds and animals rather than for combat, sport shooting, or home defense.

Hunting shotguns typically have longer barrels for accuracy at distance and may feature wood stocks and refined aesthetics.
