The V3 Field Sport maintains the same Versaport technology as its more feature-full predecessor, the Versa Max. The V3 version of the system is built with eight gas ports drilled into the chamber from approximately five to seven o’clock. When a 2¾-inch shell is chambered, all eight of the ports are open and will direct gas below into the dual pistons that blast the action open before the dual return springs return it to battery, chambering the next round and making the gun ready to fire again.
Because 3-inch shells generate more pressure, when these are chambered, they cover up half of the ports, ensuring that the action receives just the right amount of gas to cycle without damaging it. You’ll note that the V3 will not accept 3½-inch shells like the more expensive Versa Max. As only a select group of shotgun users need this capability, it was an easy feature to scrap to help economize the new design and allow for perfect balance. Two overpressure valves complete the gas system at the 12 o’clock position. These vent any excessive gas generated by substandard ammunition or poor-quality handloads.
