On Our Mark: Episode 81 - Sorix: A New Era of Weatherby Shotguns

It's an exciting day here at Weatherby® as yesterday we released the all new SORIX™. The SORIX is a revolutionary shotgun featuring the innovative SHIFT SYSTEM™. Additionally, this shotgun has oversized controls, a competition cut for smooth reloading, and is made in Italy but finished here in Sheridan, Wyoming. Luke and Tyler sit down with shotgun guru and International Sales Manager, Kyle, to talk about the development and the long journey of launching the SORIX.
In this episode we discuss:
- The long wait for the SORIX
- Creating the waterfowler’s dream shotgun
- Product testing and improving to make the best version
- The SHIFT SYSTEM - an ambidextrous platform
- Hand painted camo and colorways
- A different look than anything on the market
- The next evolution of the 18i™
- Testing the SORIX in Kodiak, AK
- Waterfowl season highs and lows
- Luke’s fall turkey

Future models should get a carbon fiber peak 44 stock and extended titanium choke/ brake.

When will the Sorix line be available at dealers?

[@mladendavidovic6246]

Birds can see ultraviolet, so it is important that the finish of the gun doesn't reflect ultraviolet sunlight

Wish you guys would have covered the manufacturing of the shotgun for 2-3 minutes.

[@JeffHenry-uo1nz]

Are the Sorix shotguns in the Sheridan Showroom?

[@weatherby]

Yes they are!

Send one to target focused life for a review

[@dustinrhodes1091]

I wonder how it’s gonna stack up against the known top dawgs…

[@dustinrhodes1091]

Looks is less than half, I’m talking functionality!

[@CraigSRichardson]

Trying to make it ambidextrous made it a faulty design. I like everything except that gaping hole on the left side

[@wyoproud9649]

you might try one out before you call it faulty ;)

Also, it would make a great cigarette holder while waiting for geese to come in.

[@richardadams6559]

where is the sorix made? TURKEY NO DOUBT

[@lukethork]

It says Italy in the video

[@richardadams6559]

thanks for the info, can it match BENELLI?@@lukethork

[@lukethork]

I may be biased but yes. I think you get more gun for the money with the Sorix, it is more like a performance shop SBE

[@tuncaykahraman8456]

Breda made.

[@apmoy70]

​Actually komşu, it's made by Marocchi ​@@tuncaykahraman8456
