Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Mossberg Model 695 is a distinctive and purpose-built bolt-action shotgun that reflects O.F. Mossberg & Sons’ practical approach to firearm design during the mid-20th century, emphasizing reliability, simplicity, and affordability for the American sportsman. Manufactured by O.F. Mossberg & Sons, the Model 695 was chambered in 12 gauge and designed primarily for hunters seeking a rugged, no-nonsense shotgun that could handle everything from upland game to small-scale farm or utility use. Unlike pump or semi-automatic designs, the 695 uses a manually operated bolt action with dual locking lugs, giving it a strong, secure lockup and a reputation for durability even with heavier field loads. Feeding is typically handled by a detachable box magazine, a somewhat uncommon feature for shotguns of its era, which allowed for straightforward loading and unloading and made the gun particularly appealing to shooters accustomed to bolt-action rifles. The barrel was generally fitted with a fixed choke—often full or modified—optimizing it for longer-range shots on birds or small game, while the simple bead front sight reinforced its role as a practical hunting arm rather than a tactical or competition piece. Stocked in plain hardwood with a straight or semi-pistol grip, the Model 695 prioritized function over flash, yet its proportions and balance made it comfortable to shoulder and steady to shoot. The trigger and bolt throw were intentionally uncomplicated, reinforcing Mossberg’s philosophy of producing firearms that were easy to maintain, dependable in harsh conditions, and accessible to working hunters. While it never achieved the widespread fame of Mossberg’s later pump-action shotguns, the Model 695 has earned a quiet respect among collectors and enthusiasts as an interesting and capable example of American bolt-action shotgun design—one that stands apart for its unconventional configuration and honest, utilitarian character.
