sarcasmn Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 There is a gun in the shop labeled an IAC Hawk 97 style pump shotguns. I have an older IAC 97. What is a “Hawk”. Are they any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Barleycorn, SASS #76982 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Picture please. The IAC Hawk was not a 97 hammered pump. It is possible that IAC has now put the Hawk monicker on 97’s clones now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Guns.com shows a gun they labeled as a 97 Hawk. https://www.guns.com/firearms/shotguns/pump-action/iac-hawk-97-12-ga-pump-action-4-1-rounds-20-7.3-new?p=20384 But I doubt some of the accuracy of the ad copy included on the page, saying that the magazine only holds 4 rounds! It does indeed look like other IAC 97s as far as the low resolution photo can make it appear. It is labeled as a "new" model, but I doubt that too. good luck, GJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickasaw Bill SASS #70001 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 the copy also says it is a DUEL action bar CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Most likely the ad copy was lifted from something like an 870 clone (dual action bars and 4 mag capacity) to make the copy for this gun. Trust almost nothing in ad copy on the Guns.com web site, this says to me. They have no one checking the ad copy before it gets sent to the web site. good luck, GJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 IAC is out of business. If you click on the "Ad to Cart" button it comes up "THE LISTING IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR SALE." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mossy Horn Gent Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 There was a 97 IAC hawk 1897 repro that is long out of production. There is also a Chinese hawk type 97 shotgun patterned after the Remington 870. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
