S P O R T I N G C L A S S I C S 1 4 7 Perfectly balanced between the hands, the Parcours gives the shooter a gun that is about 8 pounds and with the proven reliability of the K-80 receiver. Featuring a 12 gauge with 30- or 32-inch fixed-choke barrels, soldered rib, a slimmer forearm, and a totally new stock design, the K-80 Parcours points and moves with ease. For 2015, Krieghoff is offering the Parcours in 20 gauge with 32-inch fixed-choke barrels. Visit www.krieghoff.com. n Remington The new V3 blends pointability with the revolutionary VersaPort gas system, which consists of gas ports and gas pistons for enhanced load versatility while softening recoil and reducing maintenance. The VersaPort gas system self-regulates pressure based on the length of the shell, for reliable cycling of 2¾- or 3-inch shells in either trap or magnum configurations. The V3 VersaPort gas system is located directly in front of the receiver, a placement that results in a forend properly designed for ideal ergonomics and centers the weight between the shooter's hands— delivering superior balance and swing performance. Additionally the system is self- cleaning and has fewer parts than conventional gas-operated systems—a combination that reduces overall maintenance time and effort. The V3 is available with either a wood or synthetic stock, each with an adjustable stock system that will adjust to fit almost any-size shooter. Visit www.remington.com. ACCESSORIES n Atlas Trap Company The AT 400 was introduced in 2014 but the 2015 model is manufactured with a true-knife, roller-free system that ensures 100 percent feeding—even with wet or frozen targets. The newer model also features ratcheting levers for quick-and-easy angle adjustments and tilts to such extremes that a chandelle target is now a reality from a sporter machine. The AT 400's launch-plate design leads to precise, extremely accurate targets. Other upgrades include a stainless-steel motor cover, waterproof microswitch, and a completely enclosed magazine.

The tubes are made from 17-4 stainless and precision machined to produce better patterns than standard flush chokes. These tubes feature 25 percent larger parallel sections, which reMINGtON V3 KrIeGHOFF K-80 atLaS traP at400
