Our Assessment
Founded in 1957, Blaser built its reputation by combining strong mechanical design with refined execution. The F3 is one of the company’s best known sporting shotguns, valued for its low profile receiver, excellent trigger system, and competition oriented handling. It is a platform designed to absorb heavy range use while maintaining the feel and refinement expected from a premium European over under.
This example is the Competition Sporting Standard variant, configured for clay target shooting with 32 inch barrels, mechanical trigger, and an adjustable stock system. The fitted Comp-N-Choke tubes and excellent bore condition reinforce its suitability as a serious sporting clays or skeet gun. With very little visible wear, this F3 remains an attractive choice for shooters looking for a high-end target shotgun that balances performance and presentation.
