The Citadel Boss25 12 Gauge 18.75" Shotgun brings AR-platform ergonomics and modularity to the semi-auto shotgun world. Built on a matte black receiver with a top Picatinny rail and lower forend rail, this 37.75-inch shotgun weighs 8.0 pounds and feeds from two included 5-round detachable magazines, giving you familiar controls and customization options right out of the box. Whether you're stocking a patrol rifle case, running the range, or building a home-defense battery, the Boss25 delivers the pointability and accessory potential of an AR in 12 gauge form.
The adjustable comb on the black synthetic stock lets you dial in your sight picture, while the included adjustable folding raised tactical sights and muzzle brake give you choices for how you want to set up and shoot. The pistol grip, rail real estate, and included five-choke set mean you won't need much else to get going. Home defenders and tactical shooters appreciate the familiar controls and magazine-fed capacity; range runners like the detachable-mag convenience and the clean, modular platform that begs for optics, lights, and other gear.
At 8 pounds and built on the Boss25 platform, this is a capable semi-auto that bridges AR-rifle shooters into the shotgun world without a steep learning curve. Pair it with your favorite 12 gauge loads and you've got a flexible, ready-to-upgrade workhorse.
