Tristar Cobra III 23159 Max7 Pump Shotgun, 20 Gauge, 24" Barrel, CT-3 Chokes

The TriStar Cobra III 20 gauge pump shotgun is a nimble, reliable workhorse built for hunters and sport shooters who value maneuverability without sacrificing firepower. The 24-inch barrel and compact overall length of 44.5 inches make this 20 gauge pump shotgun easy to swing through brush, navigate tight blinds, or carry during long days afield. At just 5.8 lbs, it shoulders naturally and won't wear you down—a genuine advantage on upland hunts or from a duck boat where every ounce matters.

TriStar engineered the Cobra III with a chrome-lined barrel for corrosion resistance and durability, and the Max-7 camo finish breaks up your profile in the field while the synthetic stock stands up to weather and hard use. The red fiber optic front sight cuts through low light and gives you a fast, confident sight picture when birds flush or targets break. The extended forearm and sling swivel studs let you customize your grip and carry to match your hunting style, and the interchangeable CT-3 chokes give you the shot pattern flexibility to adapt to different quarry and distances.

Load it with three-inch shells in your preferred shot size—the 3-inch chamber handles the full range—and trust the smooth pump action and 4+1 capacity to get the job done. The cross-bolt safety is intuitive and accessible, and the rubber butt pad helps manage recoil during extended shooting sessions. Whether you're after upland birds, waterfowl, or running clays at the club, this compact 20 gauge delivers the balance of firepower and handling that experienced shooters expect from TriStar.
