Tristar Tactical 12 Gauge?

[Jdalton765]

Does anyone have experience with the tristar Tactical 12 gauge? I just purchased one for under 200 from a local gun shop, wasnt really sure the quality of it but looked and felt awsome for the price so i left with it, i havent had the chance to go and shoot it yet, it has a return spring on the pump so you pull back and release and it will slide back forward, im not really that experienced with shotguns so please give your input.

I am not sure why you would release the forearm grip after you racked a shell...maybe if for some reason you were unable to use one arm. Other than that, I have not heard anything bad about them. Get out, shoot it, and get to know its operation. The best weapons are those YOU can effectively use. Nice price point BTW for under $200. I think they usually go a tad higher (~ $250-ish)

Buddy of mine has a Tri-Star over & under and he loves it. My understanding is that Tri-Star doesn't have a factory per se, but designs the guns and has various good quality Turkish gun makers manufacture their product.

Others here probably can fill in more blanks. However I can tell you my buddy likes his Tri-Star very much and he says quality/reliability have been great. Nice gun, enjoy!

Yeah. I can't remember which city/village the Tri-Star's are made in off the top of my head but there are several areas in Turkey that put out quality shotguns in the same manner.

what can u now say about the tristar tec 12 after u shot it?

^^^ That is what i was going to ask, but that model just came out and I think the MSRP on it is around $600-$700.

Don't know much about Tri-stars other than not to buy there semi-autos. All the o/u and pumps seem to have good reviews but the semi-autos all seem to have problems. Most were related to the VIPER.
