Description
The Stevens 555 28 Gauge 24-Inch is an over/under shotgun with 24-inch barrels, a Turkish Walnut stock, and a single selective trigger. It is a light, quick-handling over/under that does not ask you to spend a fortune.
Stevens 555 28 Gauge 24-Inch Overview
The 555 is Stevens’ answer to shooters who want a true over/under without paying a premium. Its aluminum receiver is scaled to each gauge, so a smaller-bore 555 carries a smaller, lighter frame instead of a heavy 12-gauge action. A steel insert reinforces the breech where the barrels lock up, which keeps the receiver light while giving it the strength to handle steady use. The result is a shotgun that swings quickly, carries easily through a day of upland walking, and still looks the part with its walnut furniture.
Action and Barrel
The two chrome-lined carbon steel barrels sit in a classic over/under arrangement and are fired through a single selective mechanical trigger. Because the trigger is mechanical rather than inertia-driven, the second barrel fires reliably even with a light load. A tang-mounted safety doubles as the barrel selector, and extractors lift the empty hulls so you can pluck them out by hand. The 24-inch barrels on this model accept the included choke tubes so you can tighten or open the pattern for the game or target in front of you.
Stock and Fit
The Stevens 555 28 Gauge 24-Inch wears a Turkish Walnut stock and fore-end. Length of pull is 13 inches, a compact dimension that suits smaller-framed and younger shooters. A recoil pad at the butt softens felt recoil and keeps the stock from slipping on your shoulder. Overall length is about 39.57 inches and the gun weighs about 5 lbs, light enough to carry all day.
Sights and Chokes
A simple front bead sits at the end of the rib for fast, instinctive pointing. Five choke tubes come with the gun: Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Cylinder, so you can open the pattern for close flushing birds or tighten it for longer passing shots and clay targets.
In the Field
In 28 gauge, it is a delight for quail, grouse, doves, and skeet, with mild recoil and a slim, quick-handling feel that experienced shooters prize. Use it for upland birds, doves, waterfowl over decoys with appropriate loads, and casual rounds of skeet, trap, or sporting clays.

Care and Cleaning
Cleaning is simple. After each outing, run a bore brush and patches through the barrel and wipe down the choke tube threads, wipe the metal with a light coat of gun oil, and check that the action is free of dirt and debris. Remove and clean the choke tubes regularly, and put a little choke tube lube on the threads so they do not seize. Wipe the walnut with a soft cloth to keep moisture off the finish.
