The Retay Antalya Elegant 12 Gauge 30″ Semi-Auto Shotgun is a field-ready inertia-driven scattergun that blends Turkish walnut with an anodized aluminum receiver. At 6 lbs. 15 oz., it swings fast on upland birds and clays, and the 30″ barrel keeps the pattern tight out to 40 yards. This is a gun built for shooters who demand reliability without the weight penalty of a gas system.

Key Features
Inertia Piston System – Why it matters: It cycles 1 oz. target loads to 3″ magnums without gas fouling, so you can shoot all day with minimal cleaning.
Grade 4 Oiled Walnut Furniture – Why it matters: Hand-selected Turkish walnut with deep figure gives this gun a custom look and a warm, secure grip in wet conditions.
TruGlo Fiber Optic Front Bead – Why it matters: The bright green fiber picks up light fast, giving you a clear sight picture in dawn, dusk, or heavy cover.
4+1 Capacity with 3″ Chamber – Why it matters: You get four shells in the tube plus one in the chamber, enough for a full round of sporting clays or a limit of ducks.
30″ Barrel with Ventilated Rib – Why it matters: The longer barrel smooths your swing for crossing targets, and the ventilated rib dissipates heat and reduces mirage.
Who It’s For
This shotgun is for the hunter or clay shooter who wants an elegant, lightweight semi-auto that doesn’t beat you up. If you spend weekends chasing pheasants over pointing dogs or running 100-bird sporting clays rounds, the Antalya Elegant’s 6 lb. 15 oz. weight and inertia system keep you fresh. It also suits the shooter who appreciates fine wood and doesn’t want a synthetic-stocked gun.
Pros & Cons
Pro: Light enough to carry all day – 6 lbs. 15 oz. unloaded.
Pro: Inertia system runs clean and cycles a wide range of loads.
Pro: Grade 4 walnut looks twice the price.
Con: The inertia system can be sensitive to very light 1 oz. target loads until broken in (about 100 shells of 1⅛ oz. recommended).

The Retay Antalya Elegant sits between the Benelli Montefeltro’s lighter weight and the Beretta A300’s lower price. You get finer wood than the Montefeltro and an inertia system that avoids the gas-cleaning chore of the A300. If you want a semi-auto with show-grade wood and a proven cycling system, this is your pick.
FAQ
What loads does the Retay Antalya Elegant cycle reliably?
Per Retay specs, the inertia piston cycles 2¾” and 3″ shells from 1 oz. target loads up to 3″ magnums. For the first 100 rounds, use 1⅛ oz. or heavier loads to help seat the piston spring. After break-in, it will run light target loads.
Does this shotgun come with choke tubes?
Yes, the Antalya Elegant ships with three Beretta/Benelli-pattern choke tubes (IC, M, F) and a choke wrench. This gives you flexibility for clays, upland, and waterfowl.
Is the stock adjustable for drop and cast?
No, the Grade 4 walnut stock is fixed. If you need a custom fit, a gunsmith can add a recoil pad or shim the stock. The comb is pre-shaped to align your eye naturally with the ventilated rib.
How does the inertia system compare to gas-operated shotguns for recoil?
Inertia systems like this Retay produce a sharper but shorter recoil impulse than gas guns. The trade-off is lighter weight and no gas fouling. The 6 lb. 15 oz. weight helps absorb some of the kick.
