Weatherby Orion I Over/Under Shotgun
The Orion I represents a time-tested approach to shotgun design: a traditional boxlock action built on a forged steel receiver, paired with the kind of balance and handling that makes shooting effortless. Whether you're working upland birds, pursuing waterfowl, or breaking clays, this shotgun delivers consistent, reliable performance.
Design and Handling
The low-profile receiver creates a natural shouldering point, allowing you to acquire targets faster and maintain that smooth, instinctive swing that separates good shooters from great ones. The 28-inch barrel strikes an ideal balance between sight radius and maneuverability, making it equally at home in the field or at the sporting clays course.
