Pointer Pointer Ft12 Semi 12Ga 28 Wood

The Pointer FT12 semi-automatic 12-gauge shotgun with 28-inch barrel is a versatile, shootable workhorse built for hunters and sport shooters who value reliable performance without breaking the bank. This wood-furniture model delivers the handling balance and classic aesthetics that many shooters prefer, while the gas-operated rotating bolt design absorbs recoil and muzzle jump—meaning you'll shoot faster, more accurately, and stay on target through multiple rounds. Whether you're working upland birds, running clay courses, or just spending time at the range, the FT12 handles the fundamentals well enough to let you focus on your shooting.

The rotating bolt-head system is the real story here: it cycles gas pressure to manage recoil forces more evenly than traditional designs, so follow-up shots feel less punishing and you're less likely to develop a flinch. The oversized bolt handle is easy to manipulate even with gloved hands, and the 5-plus-1 capacity (five shells in the tube, one in the chamber) gives you enough rounds for most hunting and sport-shooting scenarios without excessive bulk.

You get five extended choke tubes to dial in your shot pattern for different game and distances, a vented rib along the barrel for a cleaner sight picture and reduced glint, and a fiber-optic front sight that picks up light in the field. The wood furniture strikes a timeless, practical look—durable and elegant without unnecessary tactical dressing. This is a shotgun that gets out of your way and lets you shoot.
