Why This Triple Barrel Wins
Having test-fired dozens of shotguns from our 100-yard range here in Spring, TX, the American Tactical Triple Barrel delivers where it counts. The walnut stock provides better recoil absorption than synthetic alternatives, while the 3.5″ chamber handles heavier loads than most competitors. For the price, you’re getting a unique firearm that performs as good as it looks.

Does this shotgun come with chokes?
No, the barrels are cylinder bore with no choke tubes included.

Can you mount optics on this shotgun?
No, the receiver isn’t drilled and tapped for optics mounting.
What’s the barrel length?
20″ barrels – short enough for maneuverability but long enough for decent patterning.
Is this suitable for home defense?
While possible, we’d recommend a more traditional pump-action for defensive use due to faster reload capability.
