“Until this year I had NEVER laid eyes on a firearm made specifically for women. Then I got the opportunity to test Fabarm’s Syren XLR5 Waterfowler, and after the first shot at a green-winged teal at first light in the Suisun Marsh, most aspects of the gun exceeded my expectations.”

“The cause may have been the initial draw, but the opportunity to goose hunt on the storied North Platte River–and to spend one-on-one time with Syren’s XLR5 Women’s Waterfowler shotgun sealed the deal for us.”

“I cast an admiring glance toward the Syren XLR5 Waterfowler resting by my left knee. I call her my “Goldilocks Gun” – not too small, not too big. Just right.”

“Offered in both right- and left-handed models, the XLR5 has been carefully engineered to the meet the needs of the modern huntress, most notably in stock design.”

“Ripe peaches envy my bruising ability, yet I patterned stout turkey loads with the XLR5 off the bench and came away unscathed. It’s not like the XLR5 made turkey loads fun, but the point is that its geometry encouraged good form, which is a critical element in recoil management.”

“According to the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the largest growing segment entering the shooting sports and hunting are women, so according to Syren president Wes Lang It’s high time someone built a shotgun for them.”

“Whether you’re man or woman, left-handed or right-handed, long-necked, short-armed, or three-legged, the bottom line is that you will shoot better with a gun that fits you.”
