Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Kessler Model 228FR is a distinctive bolt-action shotgun chambered in 16 gauge with a 2 ¾-inch chamber, reflecting a design approach that blends rifle-like operation with traditional shotgun utility. Its 28-inch barrel, configured with a full choke, is optimized for delivering tight, consistent shot patterns, making it well-suited for upland bird hunting or other applications requiring precision at extended ranges.

Combining traditional craftsmanship with an unconventional action type, the Kessler Model 228FR stands out as both a practical field gun and an interesting collectible for enthusiasts of unique shotgun designs.
