Key Features
Chrome-Lined Barrels and Chambers — WHY IT MATTERS: Reduces cleaning time and extends barrel life, especially when using steel shot or heavy magnum loads in wet conditions.
Fiber-Optic Front Sight — WHY IT MATTERS: Gives you a bright, high-visibility aiming point in low-light dawn or dusk shoots, so you don’t miss that crossing shot.
Single Selective Trigger — WHY IT MATTERS: Lets you instantly swap between modified and improved cylinder chokes without changing your grip or breaking your mount.
Five Mobil-Style Choke Tubes Included — WHY IT MATTERS: Covers everything from skeet to full patterns, so you can dial in for doves, pheasants, or geese right out of the box.
Tang Safety with Barrel Selector — WHY IT MATTERS: Keeps the controls where your thumb naturally rests, giving you fast, intuitive operation when birds flush unexpectedly.
Who It’s For
This shotgun is for the hunter who wants a durable, weather-resistant O/U without spending over a grand. It’s ideal for waterfowlers who need 3.5″ chamber capacity, upland hunters who want a lightweight carry gun, and shooters who prefer synthetic stocks over wood for hard use in rain, mud, or saltwater marshes.
Pros & Cons
Pro: Lightweight alloy receiver reduces fatigue during all-day hunts.
Pro: Chrome-lined bores resist corrosion better than blued steel.
Pro: Includes a full set of choke tubes and a hard case — no extra cost.
Con: Extractors instead of ejectors mean you’ll manually pull spent shells, which can slow reloads in competition or fast-paced shooting.

FAQ
What shells can I run in the TriStar Arms Hunter Mag II O/U Shotgun 12 Gauge 3.5″?
You can shoot 2.75″, 3″, and 3.5″ 12-gauge shells. The 3.5″ chamber handles magnum waterfowl loads, while the chrome-lined barrels manage steel shot without damage.
Does this shotgun come with choke tubes?
Yes, it ships with five Mobil-style chokes: Full, Improved Modified, Modified, Improved Cylinder, and Skeet. A choke wrench and padded case are also included.
Is the TriStar Hunter Mag II reliable with light target loads?
Yes, but like many O/Us with alloy receivers, it may need a break-in period of 100-200 shells. Once settled, it cycles light 1-oz target loads and heavy 3.5″ magnums reliably.
Is this shotgun suitable for left-handed shooters?
The tang safety and barrel selector are ambidextrous, but the stock has a right-hand cast-off. A left-handed shooter may need a custom stock or adjustable comb for a perfect fit.
What is the warranty on this shotgun?
TriStar Arms offers a 5-year limited warranty on the Hunter Mag II. Register your purchase online to activate coverage.
