Tristara Raptor Ii 20Ga 3 24 Youth Muddy Girl

The TriStar Raptor II 20-gauge youth shotgun in Muddy Girl camo is built for younger and smaller-frame shooters who want a semi-automatic that handles like a grown-up gun without the recoil. At 42.75 inches overall with a 24-inch barrel and weighing just 6.1 lbs, this compact semi-auto delivers the handling and pointability that matter when you're building shotgun fundamentals—whether you're learning clay shooting, hunting upland game, or running a youth trap program. The Muddy Girl synthetic stock and forend are durable, weather-resistant, and designed to appeal to hunters and sport shooters who like distinctive gear.

The semi-automatic action cycles 20-gauge 3-inch shells smoothly and reliably, feeding from a 5+1 magazine capacity. A cross-bolt safety keeps things simple and intuitive, and the fiber-optic front sight helps you pick up the target quickly in the field or on the range. The matte blue receiver and barrel won't flash sun, and the included multi-choke system (Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder) lets you match your shot pattern to the distance and game you're pursuing.

TriStar engineered the Raptor II to be a working shotgun, not a toy—it'll run hard and hold up to the bumps and weather that come with real use. If you're shopping for a first semi-auto, helping a young shot learn the ropes, or just want a lightweight, compact 20-gauge that won't beat you up, the Raptor II is a solid choice that won't require a second mortgage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Raptor II a good first shotgun for youth and new shooters?

Yes. At 6.1 lbs and 42.75 inches overall with a 24-inch barrel, it's scaled for smaller frames and delivers much lighter recoil than a 12-gauge, making it ideal for building confidence and technique without flinching. The semi-automatic action also cycles shells smoothly, reducing felt recoil further.

What chokes come with this shotgun?

The Raptor II ships with three choke tubes: Full, Modified, and Improved Cylinder. You can swap them to adjust your shot pattern depending on distance and game.

Can the Raptor II handle 3-inch shells?

Yes. The gun is chambered for 3-inch 20-gauge ammunition, so you can shoot both 2.75-inch and 3-inch loads.

What does the Muddy Girl camo look like and how durable is it?

Muddy Girl is a distinctive blended camo pattern in earthy pink and brown tones. The synthetic stock and forend are weather-resistant and built to withstand regular field use, rain, and rough handling—no maintenance required beyond a basic wipedown.
